Glad to hear you've had luck with them! Oddly, the Anglica Kanaele Bog must've had something wrong with them... so it's not your fault. My whole pot of them didn't pull through, but the Alakai Swamp form did. I'm happy that I was able to help out a fellow Iowan ;) Happy holidays, dude!

haha I wish I had your optimistic attitude :D btw, your collinsiae pic you posted a while ago was sooooooo good.

oh boy, well after looking into things a bit further tonight, it seems as tho Siggi has come upon a realization about his "D. ultramafica" recently X/: http://forum.carnivoren.org/index.php?/topic/33234-drosera-ultramafica/#entry152894 (It's all in German). Even Tobias, who received seeds from...

awesome! A pot that size would be superb for preventing the root-related issues that I and so many others have had w/ this spcs. Also a great medium mix and a good idea to replace the media every year to prevent problems. Spot on with everything! Nice work.

really great pics, everyone!!! I was a bit worried that the Ultramafica would prove to be spatulata 'Tamlin' or something similar, but Ron's pics alleviate some of my worries, since they look like Siggi's pics from a while back.

...and adding to NaN's post... The plants I've grown in a lower-light greenhouse appear to have tentacles completely devoid of pigment. However, the same clones grown under stronger lighting in a different greenhouse (or under fluorescent lights) look like the picture below (unfortunately, what...

these are inspirational :D!

boy, your collection has sure come along. I can't imagine how much work that was!!! HUGE props to you for maintaining all of those. It still takes me about a full day every 6 weeks or so even to just keep up with ~15 species. How big is your growing area in which you're keeping all of these...

lovely! boy that one is sure loaded with flowers.

well the last time i went was in 2010- scroll to the last page in this thread: http://www.terraforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=121722&page=2 last year's was in indiana, i believe.

awesome! i'm from CR and there's usually a gathering in the midwest once a year (near chicago or thereabouts). maybe we can get a gathering going in iowa now that there are 4 of us, or so :) anyway, i'm sure we'll be able to hook you up with some dews ;) good luck with the minibog. i want to...

wow, the things I'd do...if i only weren't in poverty right now XD Fantastic work with everything.

Very nice descriptions and pictures :) ...and here's an illustration of DJ57's post: D. binata var. dichotoma "T-form" flower stalk cutting rooting in water after about 6-7 weeks
