Two Drosera unknowns - need ID please

[Brokken]

Hi there,

I have two drosera unknowns that were sent to me and I forgot to label. Any thoughts would be appreciated. If possible, please post links to other examples of the plant that you believe this is.

Drosera unknown #1:

Drosera unknown #2:

Thanks and Happy Holidays!

First one almost looks like it has the texture of D. filiformis or Drosophyllum and the second one looks like a D. spatulata of D. aliciae ( spelling is horrible on that one) haha.

 

[Brokken]

It does look like Drosophyllum, but I'm pretty sure it's not. The second, I got from someone as part of a trade. Since I already have D. aliciae, it's unlikely that I would have traded for it, but it's certainly a good guess.

Because of the internodal distances, I'm going to say a Byblis for picture 1. I would need a top-down photo before I could guess on picture 2.

-Hermes.

Yeah, I thought about it. I'm not ruling out the possibility, though I have no idea where I would have picked up a Byblis seed.

 

[Wolfn]

I'm very sure the first one is a Drosera indica. That species looks very similar to a Byblis or Drosophylum.

 

[Brokken]

Drosera indica! That's what it is! Now I remember receiving a small packet from Crissytal when I purchased something else from her! Good ID!

One down, one to go.

Not sure, but the last one reminds me of Drosera brevifolia.

 

[Brokken]

Here's another shot of that Drosera. It might help with ID. The pot is 2 3/4" for reference.

Thanks Ant. I think it's a little large to be D. brevifolia. Plus it appears to be perennial.

Ugg.....ummmm.....!

D. venusta? I've seen some adult venusta as big as that. Maybe.....maybe not. I suck at this mystery stuff.

 

[Nepfreak]

It could be D. spatulata, D. venusta, or D. dielsiana but my vote's on a D. spatulata.

The Drosera grows like a coconut tree....probably a D. aliciae see this thread about my D. aliciae the plant looks weak because I jusy bought it from a nursery then...Link: http://forum.petpitcher.com/showthread.php?t=2440

Hi Brokken,

The first one looks like D indica "green form" and the second looks like D. venusta (with some D. burmannii and a D. intermedia hitchhiker..) :grin:

Happy Growing,

Brian.

 

[CPlantaholic]

Repeating what drosera5150 said, the other one is D. venusta "coccicaulis", which i sent you

 

[blokeman]

has the specimen in pic #2 flowered yet? I could post a pic of my alice sundew flowering for reference if you like..

 

[SDCPs]

That is a D. venusta for SURE. The flower stalk proves it. The leaves can be shaped like D. spatulata.

I grow many D. venusta in varying locations. That one doesn't get much light.

 

[cp-connection]

Definitely S. flava, S. rubra subsp. alabamensis, S. oreophila or a hybrid of any or all of those. Maybe with some S. alata in it. Wooo! Hope all is well, just thought a little joke was in order!
