Big ol' potful of Drosera roseana

[Whimgrinder]

Last fall I planted about 150 D. roseana gemmae in a 4" clay pot. This is what they look like today. The blooms are very sweetly scented! (I uploaded a really big photo, so click for a highly detailed view)

I sent out quite a few packages of these gemmae to other TF members.....how did yours do?

I like it! Looks like miniature 'dew heaven.

Looks so much better then mine! but then again, mine have been neglected for months and have a moldy media. But that isn't stopping them from producing gemmae, despite the fact that in mid December they were gemmae themselves .

You should have asked me for some gemmae back when I was giving them away! Next fall?

Funny, I was looking for a place that sold this plant last night. I'll have to keep an eye out for you next fall!

Very nice, Whimgrinder!! There's something captivating about miniature Drosera species - so much sparkle in such a little space!

Well done.

Noah, now that's a blast from the past! And in Senegal now. With a recent sighting of Forbes on the ICPS board all we need now is to hear from Peter.

Ah well, back on topic.

Yes, pygmy Drosera are wonderful.
