CP Water Germination Experiment
Phase 1 tropical & subtropical species, mostly Drosera
No stratification
When I decided to restart my CP collection I had some seeds stored in my refrigerator for up to 17 years. Some were from the ICPS seedbank and some were from my old collection in the mid to...
Hello everyone,
Here is another call to correct your plant labels! :)
A few colleagues and I have just published a 35-page review of the D. montana complex. Like our previous publications on Brazilian sundews, this paper has been decades in the making and it has definitely been the most...
At the end of last month I visited some Fiordland mountains in the South Island, New Zealand and made 2 short videos of the sundews growing there and the environment in which they grow.
Hope you enjoy. Its autumn here and as of two days ago the plants will probably have had there first snow. Im...
Here is a short video I took of Drosera stenopetala growing in the alpine zone at Arthurs Pass on New Zealands Southern alps. Its shot at about 1400 m above sea level maybe higher.
You can also see Drosera arctaurii and a strange form of drosera arctaurii with wide leaves.
I will post some pics...
Here is a youtube video I took 2 days ago of Uticularia dichotoma (formerly U monanthos) growing in an alpine bog at Arthurs Pass in the Southern Alps of New Zealand. The bog is at about 900m abouve sea level. The flowers are an amazing blue colour. If you like this kind of video I also took a...
Hi.
I've got some plants growing nicely, so I've decided its about time I do some more research!
Here are some questions I have:
1. How long does it normally take for sundews to grow to full, mature size, from seed? (Assuming they were in the correct conditions and were thriving!)
2. How long...
I have this seedling which came up this season which does not look like capensisi or binata which have infested other places. Im guessing its either aliceae or capensis x aliceae Do those two hybridise? Other possibilities are stenopetala, intermedia or anglica that some how jumped pots (much...
Hello All,
I would like to bring your attention to the relatively new website of The New Zealand Carnivorous Plant Society.
This new site replaces our old one and the site will continue to grow and change during the year as more features are added.
You’ll find all the information here for...
Well I havn't been active on this forum for a long time. I thought I'd post my growlist up here so those who remember me can see that i've progressed from my single VFT
Here's a link to this growlist on the CPUK Forums where I am active: lil_flytrap_KID's Growlist on CPUK
Drop me a PM...
Hello everyone, here is my grow list. Little old with some additions missing but pretty accurate. Current 2/05 additions coming soon, couple losses to.
Aldrovanda

ald2 Australian red form NSW near Mertens Creek above Big Mertens Falls near Mitchel Falls, Kimberley...

D. dielsiana
D. anglica
D. spatulata
D. indica
D. burmannii
D. filiformis var. filiformis
D. sessilifolia
D. capensis(white flower)

This consists of a pot full of cp mix with about 100 D. stenopetala seed sown on top. This Drosera needs 2 months stratification minimunm and has already had 3 weeks. It needs cool weather (like england) to grow because it is an alpine plant from Australia (or is it NZ?). Any way grow it like D...
I jsut revieved some Drosera stenopetala seed in the mail today. How do I germinate it? And how do I grow it?
Edit: Suppsed to be D. stenopetala in the headline not D. stenopeltata.
Edit: Fixed the topic for you.
I have fresh seeds from a recent trip to Stewart Island, New Zealand that I am keen to trade for fresh fertile seeds of Drosera regia.
Seeds of D. stenopetala and D. spatulata were collected at 47 degrees latitude on a track between Doughboy Bay and Mason Bay. Quite possibly the most...
Okay, I was reading the ICPS seed bank list and I came across Drosera stenopetala. Apparently the region is alpine. What is the alpine region? I'm just curious.
After a winter of weird weather in the UK, lots of mild spells interpersed with occasionally cold snaps (never below 25F (-5C)) I doubted that my most prized sundew would over-winter well enough to survive. However, my Drosera stenopetala hiburnaculum woke up fighting fit in the Spring and has...
Sorry to ask you here but I am not at my machine to send email to the appropriate folks, hoping they catch it here.
I received some new Drosera unexpectedly that I do not have any (good) experience with and wanted to get some basic info on them if possible. Media to use, pot size and depth...
