Drosera petiolaris group--June pics!

Beautifully done, as always Peter.

I enjoy these photos almost as much as seeing most of these plants in person.

BTW: I meant to ask you where you got the snazzy domed tray you had them in but got distracted by the million other things going on.

It's a great domed tray isn't it? Very hard to find as these are imported from England.
You can get it for about $10 from Charley's Greenhouse Supply.

I also use it for my ping propagation and for general high humidity use.

Very nice pictures! I saw pictures of the tank you grow them in, what temp range and humidity level do you keep them at? Do you use Peat:Sand mix? Thanks
 
The tank is covered, so the humidity is probably up there in the 80% plus range. The temps hit about 105 degrees in the day, and about 70 at night. In the winter i use a heating cable so i don't think it goes below 70 at any time.
My potting mixture is about 2/3 peat and 1/3 sand. I keep them above the water and water by hand about every 2-3 days.
