Hi,
I grow my plants of D. petiolaris [Edit: D. dilatato-petiolaris] on a sunny windowsill in a small plastic terrarium which stands on top of the lights of another terrarium. The box is covered with plastic by 80-90%, so it gets very wet and hot inside. They benefit much from the heat from the lights they are standing on. Perhaps I will buy a terrarium heating pad for the winter time. You can see some pictures on my homepage, but the plants look much better now! And see the petflytrap thread, too. I posted some pics there, too. Sorry for the few tips, but for the time being I only succeed in propagating this little gems, growing them is another side of the coin! ;)
Sorry for the bad english!
Good growing!

The propagation of the petiolaris complex sundews is very easy.
The start was made by Joseph Clemens with D. falconeri.
Read the whole story here: http://www.cpzine.com/article.aspx?cid=13&...p;m=10&d=13
There are some other species we tried as: D. dilatato-petiolaris, D. paradoxa and D. petiolaris [EDIT: No -> D.dilatato-petiolaris, too...]. All work very well, especially by just pulling the leafs from the plant with the white base and then put them in pure destilled water, in bright light and some heat. The success rate is about 75%, so go on and propagate your little gems! ;)
The tread lost here is on the petflytrap forum, too:

I hope this forum will fill quickly again!
