Some of my outdoor sticky plants were looking great backlit by the sun this evening, so I grabbed some photos.

Very lovely. What are they? I'm still new to sticky worms, and know even less about the round sticky sticky worms. I've got what I think is a spatulata flowering. I'm hoping my other one flowers. It's tiny and round. I don't remember the whole name but it does end with sp. Floating.

Sweet! Mike just posted a picture of it! It's going to grow up looking like a palm tree!

I see no one has told you. The palm tree that Mike has is Drosera capensis blains kloof pass. Admirablis floating isn’t as cool

Aw l. But they're both blains? Oh, is that a location?

These things are orange and red! That's awesome. I wonder how big they get.

That makes sense now lol. I never really thought about locations as important, but after seeing differences I see why they're important now.

Finally, I was looking for a recruit to collect seeds from there for me. Just not enough diversity in cultivation!

They're D. spatulata from Beenak, Australia and D. burmannii (which are both weeds), followed by D. filiformia v. floridana, Drosophyllum, and Drosera palacea.

Spatulata are much nicer than I thought.
