Still quite new to this whole CP growing thing, mostly used to seeing the Cape sundews in the wild!
Species I have observed include:
D. aliciae
D. admirabilis
D. capensis
D. esterhuyseniae
D. hilaris
D. glabripes
D. ramentacea
D. trinervia
D. slackii
D. xerophila
D. cuneifolia
I used to have some capensis and small sarracenia but put them in shade and that was that. A year later i sta
What I'm growing
Currently have seedlings of:
D. spatulata
D. tokaiensis
Tomorrow I am getting seeds of:
D. aliciae "kleinmond giant"
D. natalensis Beacon hill- Umtamvuna NR "Miniature form"
D. X tokaiensis (D. spatulata x D. rotundifolia)
D. aliciae x snyderi F2
D. spatulata hong kong "Macau round leaf"
D. venusta "Knysna"
D. natalensis bulangula transkei "Round leaf"
D. nidiformis Umtamvuna NR Western heights
D. natalensis x D. nidiformis (natural hybrid)Umtamvuna NR
D. burmanii "Beerwah all green" Beerwah, australia
What I hope to get this year
I have a collection permit for Drosera in the Cape of South Africa and I am hoping to get:
-Various capensis clones
-Drosera cistiflora (red, white, pink, possibly yellow)
-Drosera alba
-Drosera zeyheri
-Drosera variegata
-Drosera rubrifolia (if I can get a private location to collect it)
-Drosera ericgreenii (same as above)
-Drosera coccipetala
-Drosera trinervia
-Drosera 'trinervia' sp "orange" (Orange flower form)
-Drosera trinervia "giant" (9cm across, not in cultivation at all afaik)
-Drosera pauciflora
-Drosera ramentacea
-Drosera hilaris
-Drosera xerophila
-Drosera esterhuyseniae
I should be able to find seeds of most of the above, will have to make a proper setup to grow them though! Some very different growing habits here. I hope to at least start my more water loving species in trays outside as I expand! The rest to the fridge for the time being. It's exciting to get back into things. I will be posting many photos as the year goes on
