It looks like I'll have two species of pygmy sundew (helodes and pulchella) blooming at the same time over the next week or two. In fact, they each have a flower opening right now as I type.

I have no idea if they're compatible, but I'm gonna try and cross them because why not. Anyone have any tips on pollinating/germinating pygmy sundews? I assume they don't self-pollinate but I'll probably take the anthers off anyway.

Update: I just picked through the first round of seed pods from this cross. The helodes x pulchella had nothing, but pulchella x helodes did have a few seeds! It's only 15 out of 4 pods, but they seem big enough to be viable. Gonna plant the 15 soon to see if I can get any sprouts : )

Good luck!
