Stefan P Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 (edited) Help appreciated: I've got it labelled as Drosera pulchella but it doesn't resemble my other pulchellas Thanks, Stefan Edited July 21, 2008 by Stefano Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lil_flytrap_kid Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 Wow, check out the focus on the mossy stuff. Good lucking finding it's identity! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stefan P Posted May 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 Yeah - This camera has such a small depth of field so its really hard to get most of the plant in focus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsivertsen Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 It looks like one of the two dozen or so forms of D. pulchella to me! - Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark.ca Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 Might be a hybrid like nitidula x pulchella....but your right, it doesen't look like pulchella Wait for the flowers...it's hard to tell without Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stefan P Posted May 31, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2008 Thanks Guys - I'm hoping it will flower soon ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stefan P Posted July 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2008 (edited) It has begun! The plant has started to flower The flower should *hopefully* open within the next week or two :) Edited July 11, 2008 by Stefano Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stefan P Posted July 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 Thanks And do I have to get another plant to pollinate this, or is it self pollinating? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amar Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 Thanks And do I have to get another plant to pollinate this, or is it self pollinating? Do you want to pollinate it to get seeds? The easier way is to wait for the gemmae, if I'm right, all pygmies produce them. No need for seeds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark.ca Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 That flower looks like a pulchella flower! The plant doesn't.....are you growing it in low light? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stefan P Posted July 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2008 Thanks Amar, I know that they produce Gemmae, but it seems a waste of plant power to let it flower and do anything with it. Mark - Maybe, but, I'm not going to move it because it seems to be doing alright (sending up another flower stalk ). Thanks, Stefan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
