What variety is that? It's not manspreading as much as others.

Drosera graomogolensis Itacambira

I love the little man!

Late to the party but I was waiting for my Drosera broomensis to recover from its long postal journey. It's a tiny plant, diameter of each leaf blade less than 2mm, less than 1/10 ". But I'm very happy to see new icky sticky on its teensy tentacles at last

Gonna go with this absolutely mind-blowing patch of Drosera capensis I saw not too long ago !

A bit over a week in our photo contest and here are the standings.

There have been some great pictures shared. Go ahead and take a look at them and be sure to vote for your favorites!

Ah, whatever. I'm liking everyone's posts. Maybe they'll be kind and like mine . Sorry if I accidentally un-liked and then liked again.

Same, I liked everyones.

They just all look very good.

A bit late, but here’s my Drosera filiformis ‘Dreamsicle’.

Pinguicula ehlersiae Looks like a fake plant, can’t believe it’s real and also a killer

The secret is that Photo Contests aren't really contests... they're actually a fun way to share what you're growing and engage with the community. So don't worry so much about winning and try to have fun with it

Get in early. Choose great pics. I usually send my winning plant to kids I know who love them but can't afford to buy them.

It was a close race, and Carnies was almost able to close the gap, but slicric78 pulled ahead to number 1 with 15 votes.

Congratulations. PM me for instructions on claiming your prize.

Thank you to everyone who participated, and keep an eye out for this month's contest. It will be going up later today.
