Drosera aliciae

[elgecko]

2017 I got rid of most of my CP's and switch out to cactus & succulents, mainly growing Haworthia's.

I kept growing D. filiformis. It has been my only sundew since 2017.
The last couple of years I've been wanting to get a few more CP's other then the few I kept from all those years ago.
Drosera aliciae has been a favorite rosette type. Back on 3/29/25 I sprinkled some seed from 2007 in a pot. 5/1/25 I noticed some seeds were germinating. I also tried some D.capensis "Red" from 2008. I did not get that good of a germination rate from them, and the few that did sprout, I dried the pot out too much and killed them.
Here's the D. aliciae now. Its getting close to time to individually pot these up.

I did make up a pot of the remaining seed of D. capensis "Red" just today. Maybe i"ll do better watering it this time if they germinate.

Those seem to me to be very good re-start species. I've always felt that D. aliciae was badly underrated. 'Sounds like you have stored the seeds well.

One of the few species that hasn't much cared about the fact that the last three peat bales I repotted with were all utter crap. Makes some very interesting hybrids too when it decides to bloom.
