byblis Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 Hi all, I want to share an image of D. afra with you. In my eyes it is very close to D. trinervia, the flowers might be a bit larger, the scape is much longer and there are some differences in the morphology of the leaves. Enjoy it!

Sean Spence Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 Very nice. Is it as self-fertile as D. trinervia? First photo I have seen of the species in flower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JanW Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 Very nice. Is it as self-fertile as D. trinervia? First photo I have seen of the species in flower. I second that, very beautiful & a rare sight as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
byblis Posted February 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 Hi, it is self fertile and I already have it in vitro but many plants are lost every year due to Botrytis. I will have to solve that problem soon to get larger numbers of plants. Kindest regards Stefan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khelljuhg Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 Nice flower! :) Oh, yes, the plant resembles D. trinervia from Hopefield, South Africa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
