Well since I haven’t posted any “Random Dew” posts in a while here’s a twofor.
D. slackii and D. rotundifolia.

Thank you. Nope not the MI ones. I got these as seeds from Heath I believe some time last year. These are grown indoors. I’ll put them outside to sleep once it cools down here in December or so. lol

Wow that slackii looks great. May I ask your conditions for it? Mine is under a Marshydro 300w in peat/perlite mix with temps ranging from 64-72 degrees. It looks terrible and I've only started to get it to look good again by bagging it 24/7.

I’ve only had it a short time. A few weeks or more. I recently got it from Shadowtski and it already looked great on arrival so I can’t take all the credit.
It sits on my open air rack. Temps 70-78. Humidity 55-75%. In pure sphagnum sitting in water always. 6 bulb T8 6500K fixture.
I’m thinking of putting it with my D. grao. and Helis in a tank that stays a little cooler than the rack just to see if it will like that even better.
