Carlos Rohrbacher Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 Hi all, These are a few drosera species. 1) Drosera burmannii. Humpty Doo, NT, Australia 2) Drosera sp. (What is this?) 3) Drosera montana var. schwakei. City of Diamantina, Minas Gerais State, Brazil. 4) Drosera tomentosa var. glabrata. Serra da Caraça, Minas Gerais State, Brazil. Thanks for Dani, Vitor, Paulo and Matthias! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsivertsen Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 Beautiful shots! The Dros. #2 is your basic D. rotundifolia. - Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel O. Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 (edited) Hi Carlos, very nice plants, very well coloured. Nice to see that they are growing so good. About the unknown Drosera, it really seems to be a D. rotundifolia. You can be absolutely sure if it wants to go some day into dormacy. Has it landed in this pot as a "parasite", because only one plant is growing in this pot? Best regards, Dani Edited April 4, 2008 by Daniel O.

Carlos Rohrbacher Posted April 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2008 Hi people! Thanks for nice comments Rich: Big for D. rotundifolia (?), I think. I have D. rotundifolia, are 1/2 this plant. Dani: Yes, is a MSV (joke in portuguese forum: Without Pot Movement... ) Others D. rotundifolia stay in dormancy Regards.

Iggy Posted April 5, 2008 Report Share Posted April 5, 2008 Nice plants and good grown!!! Do you use always pure spagnum? Iggy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Hingst Posted April 5, 2008 Report Share Posted April 5, 2008 Nice shots, Carlos! And a good reminder for myself. I used to grow this D. burmanni-clone from Humpty Doo - really a very nice plant. I still have some seed somewhere, have to sow them again! Yours has a very good colouration.

BobZ Posted April 6, 2008 Report Share Posted April 6, 2008 It looks like your mystery plant is growing in live sphagnum. It would not be unusual to find an occasional D. rotundifolia to appear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsivertsen Posted April 6, 2008 Report Share Posted April 6, 2008 I have seen D. rotundifolia twice that size in the wild! Some variability even in this old standard species. - Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khelljuhg Posted April 7, 2008 Report Share Posted April 7, 2008 Very nice plants! Yes, some forms of D. rotundifolia are quite big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlos Rohrbacher Posted April 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2008 Hi all, thanks for the kind words! Iggy: I use 60% death sphagnum, 20% sand and 10% vermiculite (and a lot of rainwater) Martin: These plants receive a lot of sun , seems that they had come of another planet... are 'superburmanniis' Adilson: They are in adaptation, one I presume that one will die (H. ionasii) Bob: is death sphagnum from my country Khelljuhg&Rich: They had convinced me, but I don't know as it 'appeared' Regards.
