february pictures :-)


Recommended Posts

Hi!

It has been some time since I posted pictures here, so I uploaded fresh photos of few plants of mine. February is the shortest month, but the longest and hardest for me, since I wait for the spring so impatiently. :-) Plants like these help me get through it:-) (Some are new species to my collection). I hope you like them:-)

drosera neocaledonica (taken out of TC 2 days ago)

drosera afra (new species for me and very beautiful plant). Some call it 'the large trinervia',but to me its appearance is miles away from the one of d. trinervia.

I hope it will flower soon.

Oh wow, where to begin!

I love your broomensis x ordensis pot. I've never kept an ordensis but I heard it was a bit difficult! You don't seem to be having any problems :)

I think my fave is your Derbyensis, looks very unique.

First time I'm seeing a tokaiensis. I see there's some Utricularia in there as well. That tank is gorgeous! So inspiring.

Thanks for sharing!

Great plants Dudo!!

Your D.afra is very nice!! Just like the others.

Even D.moorei has a good size, they start flowering when they are

around 20-25 cm high, maybe next year the first yellow flowers for you !! :confused:

Thanx for nice comments:-)

@Iggy: The d. moorei is from the seed you have sent to me some time ago. I introduced it in vitro, but wasnt able to force her to form tubers, she just grew and branched. So I deflasked the plants and put them in regular substrate. Cant wait to see the nice yellow flowers! :-) Does this species go dormant for you sometimes? In my conditions it behaves a lot like peltata, keeps on growing kept hot or cool...

Hi Dudo,

It is great to see you got D.colombiana to germinate, we have not been able to germinate it here. By the way, the locality is not Curili but Curití.

Judging from where it comes, intermediate temperatures with fresh nights between 15C and 20C should be ok for it. there it can get hot above 30C in the day.

Regards,

Sebastian

Hi Sebastian!

Thanx for correcting the location for me. I guess have I misread your handwriting:-) Thanx for the seeds a lot. I am glad they germinated quite well. When I kept the seedlings warmer than 20C at night they were stagnant in growth. Now I keep them cooler at night together with d. afra and they grow really nicely and are big enough so i commenced to feed them. Thank you for the helpful tips!
