aldro is flowering

[aaddaam]

hey my aldros are flowering and i dont know how to pollinate them. also how to germinate seeds
advice aperciated

 

[StifflerMichael]

They will probably pollinate themselves. At least mine did, I got seed from them and they germinated. Wait until the seed pod is nice and fat and dark, then take the plant out and pop the pod open. Let me know if anything happens, shoot me a PM.

I was going to say that, too. I can only remember one person posting flowering Aldrovanda pictures here.

I've considered getting an Aldrovanda. Any growing tips?

Also, pics please!

Great job - not many people have the touch for these. I hope to get some eventually but haven't had space to experiment with the whole water-gardening thing much yet. Good luck with them!
