G'day. I'm fortunate another 'dew began to send a flower scape this week. A Drosera dielsiana, originally from Shoggoths. They look like swans at this stage. And with the LED (1/2 bank of lights only). I've noticed babies popping up next to the mother plants recently Good catcher too.

I always like when drosera flower stalks come from the side of the plant gives it that look of not being form the plant itself

That's great. Though, watch out for those, they are self-fertile and give a big amount of easily spread seeds .

Merci Martin. They seem to be spreading fine already without seeds! 3 or 4 are clustered around the base of the flowering plant and another larger one about 1 cm away from both (it's out of focus but visible just to the right of the top of the flower stalk). I'll add some pics to the album for these: imgur.com/a/AMGtj#0I'll also update the D. capensis and D. aliciae as well (btw, N. ampullaria is thriving in the new terrarium!).

That's great! I'm planning to put some dielsiana in a terrarium I wish to bring at my job. If everything else die, I should still have a full carpet of drosera and it will still be impressive for co-workers that can't tell the difference between a ping and a drosera hey hey I'm glad those plants are doing well for you
