Always a newbie

that came up in the same container as D. burmannii, D. capensis, D. scorpioides, D. pulchella, and D. aliciae. it grows very slow so i really dont think it could be any of those. it looks ALOT like peltata. its about as wide as the thickness of a ballpoint pen. does anyone have ideas of what it could be?

It could be Drosera peltata, Drosera auriculata, or many other possibilities. We will just have to wait until it grows up some more.
 
alright. thanks. its in my cooler terrarium now just in case it was one of those. it sprouted near the D. capensis but i still think it isnt one. i got the D. capensis from 'Crisytal' so she would know what it could be.

Looks like a tuberous dew to me.

That's what baby tuberous dews look like?

Wow then I have tons of them!
 
are they in the same pot as the D. peltata seeds that i sent you Dave? im gonna see what it does for the rest of the winter. thanks for the help guys!!

does that look like it will produce a tuber in the summer? It still looks really small. How big is it? I ask because I have a bunch of small plantlets like that in my D. macrantha pot and I was wondering if they might produce tubers
 
they will... just small ones i suppose. if they are sundews they are gonna be those tuberous dews. congrats dude

Appears most likely to be a seedling of Drosera peltata or Drosera auriculata.
