Hey I'm new to the forum I posted on the VFT side so I figured I'd put me 2 Sundews up here too. I've only had then for about 3-4 weeks here are the beginning and current photos

Nice photos! I like that you took them of the progression of the leaves unfurling. Pretty soon those leaves will be covered in little (or not so little) bugs

I like Drosera filiformis. It's a nice, big, and effective sundew that's a real conversation-raiser and always is a pleasure to look at. Great job growing it!

Thanks!!!! I got these from a local nursery and when I saw them I had to have them. And I love how they're gobbling up these pesky gnats!!!!!

Nice plants!

D. Filiformis Tracyi (the green one) doesn't catch as much as other filiformis species from my experience, but they still look nice . Do you know what species the second plant is?

Lol I have no clue I just saw it and said gimmie. It does tend to catch more bugs than the tracyi. I figured it was because the plants were closer together idk lol

You talking to me?
Mine was exercise science with anthropology and women's studies minors. I was two classes away from a third minor and like a semester away from the anthropology minor turning into a major.
