ok, so buggers may not be the best term for them, and I know thats a crappy picture, but I'm trying to figure out what I'm dealing with here? Any ideas? the seeds that have been sown in that pot at one time or another are: D. montana, and D. glanduligra, but there was a breif stay by a prolifera last, which promptly died, didn't seam to like shipping . So any ideas which it may be, providing the seed I sowed was properly labeled? theres 4 now that have popped up.the thing that caught my attention is the lack of cotyledons? don't know if that narrows it down at all, but trying to give all information I can think of. Thanks, Sib

At this point, I think you're in "wait and see" territory- I am in the same boat, a pot of what was sown as D.auriculata did NOTHING for me when I sowed them, but I kept the pot in my tray and now there's a little group of seedlings that are little rosetted 'dews- I am pretty sure they're just D tokaiensis BUT I swear, there seems to be the exact same number of plants as the number of seeds I sowed- I am waiting for a few more months before I decide- but even then, supposedly sometimes tuberous 'dews don't make "climbers" in their first season- I wish I had paid more attention!! Hopefully whatever they are is something you actually want

Usually when I reseed a pot, I switch genus, but it seams like the only thing I plant now adays is drosera... oh well, not overly a big deal that I have no clue what they are, just was hoping someone might have know in case they require some special attention... as is, they get their one water flea per leaf and seam to be making decent headway. Thanks, Sib

Hi Sib: Are those dried daphnia or do you raise them yourself?

Actually mabudon, the more it grows the more i think it's d. glanduligera heres a pick off the web: Not only does mine share that platelet looking leaf, it also has the bright orange tenticals. funny that it should finally start growing now though, 2 things have been planted in that pot in the mean time, and it was planted nearly a year ago... still getting the odd sprout, up to 5 now. Always nice to have another new species in your collection though instead of realizing that really it's just a capensis or binata that's shown up! Thanks, Sib

That's an interesting looking sundew. You certainly couldn't have guessed from the original picture.

It was one of the sets of seeds I threw in there so it dose make sense now. I'd be shocked if it turns out to be something else later on. As is I have 5 of em Sib
