Daniel O. Posted November 6, 2007 Report Share Posted November 6, 2007 Hi all, these are my first pictures on any forum. Last days i had a little bit more time than usual and so i decided to take several pictures of my plants. Some of them are not the sharpest, i know, but i hope you enjoy them. P. moctezumae a cluster of P. primuliflora G. aurea ´Chapada dos Guimares´ B. liniflora D. venusta D. nidiformis D. burmanni ´Humpty Doo´ D. adelea D. madagascariensis D. capensis ´Baines Kloof´ (15cm stem) D. capillaris ´North of Citronelle, Washington County, USA´ What i have noticed after that, it is not the easiest to take good pictures of Drosera.

Guest Aidan Posted November 6, 2007 Report Share Posted November 6, 2007 Very nice. The Baines Kloof capensis is an unusual form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nepenthesfreak Posted November 6, 2007 Report Share Posted November 6, 2007 I never thought I'd drool over capensis until I saw blaine's koof. What a gem! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobZ Posted November 6, 2007 Report Share Posted November 6, 2007 (edited) Interesting! The D. capensis ´Baines Kloof´ (15cm stem) looks similar to what I have been calling D. capensis "wide leaf" that periodically germinate as volunteer seedlings amongst the narrow leaf D. capensis plants growing at the HSU greenhouse.

Guest Aidan Posted November 6, 2007 Report Share Posted November 6, 2007 Bob - I thought the same on seeing Daniel's photos last night and dug through old posts until I found your photos. In Daniel's plant the "sticky bits" are wider than the petiole, whereas in your plant it's the opposite way around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel O. Posted November 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2007 Hi, thanks all for the kind words. @Markus: thanks, you will see more these days, no chance to escape. @Bob:D. capensis ´Baines Kloof´ is a little bit similar to D. capensis ´broad leaf´. But it differs in a few points, when you see them next to each other: 1. Aidan mentioned it allready 2. it´s smaller in diameter, more compact growth 3. it´s building faster stems 4. it flowers under mine conditions only 1 time a year, only very big plants are flowering All other D. capensis are flowering several times a year, even small plants. Here a picture for a better view. On the left you can see D. capensis ´broad leaf´ Best regards, Dani Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean Spence Posted November 7, 2007 Report Share Posted November 7, 2007 Hi Daniel, Does you Bainscloof form produce seed? I'm not asking because I want some (although I wouldn't mind adding it to my collection :) ), but rather because I have heard that this form does not often produce seed. Is this correct of your plants? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel O. Posted November 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2007 Hi Sean, indeed it has not a lot of seed and not in every seed capsule. It´s not like with the other D. capensis i know that are growing as "parasites" The flower stalk is also not so long. Bye bye, Dani Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
