The terrarium light attracts quite a few insects and there is always something being devoured in there.

Winter Growers and others awakened

Drosera cistiflora

D. trinervia

D. hookeri

D. 'Portland Sunrise'

D. dichrosepala These still have gemmae on them and putting up flowers already.

 

[bluemax]

Not a Number - those D. cistiflora certainly look robust. They seem to promise excellent flowers. 'Glad to see that 'Portland Sunrise' is doing well for you. 'Really a very nice cultivar.

The cistiflora look really robust! Have they begun forming stems yet? I can't tell from the angle the picture was taken from.

Dr. Frankensnyder's Monster. This one has not gone dormant for two winters so far.

Yes, very nice. None of the start and stop growth coming out of dormancy that every other D. filiformis does for me. Not a trace of the white fuzz that is my usual bane of D. filiformis.

Just stating to switch over to stem growth.

My "Frankensnyder" plants have gone dormant both years I've had them, interesting yours hasn't....it seems to be a vigorous group though.

 

[Not a Number]

Out of the pot of maybe 8 plants this one did not go dormant. I repotted it to keep it separate. Unfortunately I lost the other plants. I still have seed to try again.

Set up a timelapse on one of my Drosera intermedia "Cuba" - that's Utricularia fulva you see all but engulfing it.



The result, after around 16 and a half hours:

[FrankenSnyder]

Photo shot yesterday of a new generation of my cultivar Drosera rotundifolia ‘Charles Darwin’ lineage. Pitted against algae and fungi. The old Survival-of-the-Fittest game in action. Fun game.

 

[FrankenSnyder]

Update: The fittest, now with flower stalk forming.

'Sweet-looking plant! I've always like the cultivar name being as Charlie loved this species.
