Willy:
Love your last three pics...especially the burnannii with the trapped insect.
Is that a juvenile spider mite?

Thank you, I'm glad that you like it I think it depends on the type of aphids, some aren't as pretty.

Looks like your photos are getting even better! Did you get any upgraded hardware or processing software?

These pictures are truly good artwork. The D. anglica 'Hawaii' pictures should be in an art gallery, amazing, and thank you.

Willy:
Great pics as always. I also love your profile shot of the entire D.?anglica 'Hawaii'.
I was going back through your binata pics and that got me wondering...
... Can you offer any advice on how to get D. binata to bloom, or should I just wait them out? The plants are over a year old and healthy. I am giving them a light foliar feeding of 15-5-5 once a week, followed by a light misting of rain water. They are growing in a peat/perlite mix with a 3:2 ratio.
BTW. The aleciae and burmannii germinated about four weeks after the capensis, natalensis and tokaiensis. Will try and upload some pics when I can find the time. Had a very high germination rate and no losses so far, despite transplanting and new location and lights.
Thanks!
Duncan

Hello Duncan, thank you for your kind words! For D. binata, I have grown them indoors and outdoors, they seem to bloom not very often, usually in summer. These are non self-fertilizing binata, I find them enjoying bright lights and higher temperature (24-27c). Try giving them solid food, crushed fishfood and gnats are their favorite, they like those more than foliar mist. Willy

Binata flowers are sort of boring, not anywhere as interesting as the leaves.
