Don't eat me,... Mr. Flytrap
Well, I took some binata and filiformis cuttings on Dec 30th. You have to look hard at the pics of the filiformis, but they're there. I have 9 plantlets (or is the term 'strikes') of each.
I'm so happy, I could just :censor: !!!

Nice :D My 10 gallon tank was getting full of drosera so I took like 30% of there leafs of into water ,it is a great way to make trading material :D
 
Yeah, I 'floated' these for 22 days, but then they had enough new growth that I potted them up a few days ago. The filiformis are really hard to see in the picture, but they are there.
My 10 yo boy calls the binata the mustache plant...LOL!
 
They're neat plants! My first D. filiformis & binata were a leaf cutting and a young plant from BCK, respectively. That was almost 4 years ago. I have had disasters since then but have been able to maintain the plants via leaf cuttings, though the original plants died out.
