I got so much help last time I asked about hibernating by D. Binata (namely that it's not necessary), I'm wondering what people do to hibernate their D. Rotundifolia?
Recently I discovered some volunteer sprouts of this neat little variety popping up in a few of my other Sundew pots. The ones...
This thing popped up in the pot of one of my Sarracenia Alatas this summer. I plucked it up, brought it in, and placed it next to one of my D. Binatas. After sprinkling some food on it periodically throughout the summer, the thing came back from what looked like near death to a somewhat...

I went on a hike today and found a bog that is loaded with Drosera rotundifolia. Their was plants everywhere, and nice sphagnum too.
Floating sphagnum islands.
This guy was a good foot above the water on top of that stick.
I was blown away by how many, and the places they were growing...
Finally finished the 2nd bog today! And I've got a few questions about what can handle this bog, mulched and covered, through our zone 6a winter..
Is it too late in the season to put tiny sarr seedlings in there? Or should I keep them indoors under lights all winter?
What are the dews that...
In my wanderings I came across an abandoned sand pit in southern NH. Years ago a construction company used to lease this land for hauling out sand for their projects. The area was basically a white pine woodland growing on top of pure fine sand surrounded by an immense beaver dam. The company...
Does anyone know if it is better to divide D. rotundifolia when it is in active growth during the summer or in winter dormancy? Mine has three large growth points, and I don't want to hurt it as the summer begins to end. I will post pictures if necessary. Thanks.
Today I visited a couple of locations with my grandfather. First we did some canoeing through the pine barrens.
We discovered a small opening in the dense forest, it was mainly a field of cranberrys with small pools of water lilies.
There were a couple drosera intermedia scattered on the...
So, someone on OCPS forums admitted to taking plants from my cities local protected bog.
Needless to say, I wanted to unleash the kracken and destroy this kid. But he is young, and I don't want to scare him away...
Here is part of my response:
I am from Ottawa, and am quite disappointed that...
This past weekend I visited the Sifton Bog in London, Ontario. I want to thank Peatmoss for guiding me there, because it is an AMAZING bog!

Anyways, I went back there. The boardwalk is under renovation. So I could not get really close. And I was hampered by my lack of a telephoto. So no...
Here is another location on Long Island, out in a State Park in Montauk, that has fantastic Filiformis!!
They grow in a wet, sandy swath out in the sun and circle back into the bog and grow bigger and greener with Intermedia.
There's another location nearby in another State Park with much...
While at my godmother's cabin 7-4-12 I came across this log while kayaking. This is near Rhinelander, WI.
I went to investigate and found a small colony of Drosera rotundifolia.
The portion of the log above the water was maybe 8" wide, 30" long, and 8" high above the water...
Recently took a trip to see Drosera and Sarracenia in a NJ Pine Barrens bog! Below are a few photos from the trip:
