Hi all,
I've read somewhere about that plant, but I'm not able to find any pic of it!
Is there someone growing that plant? Can you please post a photo or a link to?

Thanks :)

Hi,
I ask in a forum and they tell me : we don't know.
After I contact czplant(the seller) and they tell me  :we don't know because we juste receive tissu culture...

LOL! So then Dm Bumblebee comes from anyone!! That's right, isn't it?
I've seen some seeds for sale on czplant website, but I've never seen/heard nothing about it before!! That's quite strange!!  :wacko1:

Is DM Bumblebee a form of the plant - or just any typical VFT that has grown from seed that was produced when the flowers were pollinated by bumblebees??

just another gimmick to sell plants that look like very much like typicals to those guillible types who have to have every dionaea that has been given a name.

Absolutely right! But maybe it's too early to jump to conclusions, perhaps this is the real deal,a totally bizarre variegated form that has black and yellow stripes and buzzes when it catches a Fly  :laugh2: .

So I do not understand why there is a cross between fused tooth and bumblebee. There should be photos of this plant, since someone had it as adult plant to cross with fused tooth.

Or maybe this plant is so common that it's not necessary to show it.

Cool... I'm not particularly interested in VFT but that would appeal to me :lol:

"fused tooth x bumblebee" just basically means seeds collected from fused tooth plants which were pollinated by bumblebees. Triffidnurseries used to have it in stock for about a week until they ran out. I emailed them and that's what they said. Just basically seeds collected from fused tooth plants pollinated by bumblebees.

On that basis, maybe I'll call the next plant I pollinate as x paintbrush!

We often comment on here how the naming of plants is so often unescassarily confusing especially when the plant has no actual physical distintion. So ,now the situation get's more absurd as the pollinator's name gets thrown into the mix. For instance, I have a pet Hornet called "Frank"- see what I'm getting at?
