D. spec. "hairy ascendens"


Recommended Posts

Hello,

In the moment a few of my D. spec. "hairy ascendens" ´Cristália, Minas Gerais, Brazil´ are in flower for the first time.

This untill now undescribed species is a relatively easy grower, similar to D. ascendens, but the plants are smaller in diameter, the flower scapes are much shorter and very hairy and the flowers are really small in comparison to D. ascendens, they are only about 1,2cm.

And here we go.

it was really difficult to take some better pictures of the flowers because of their small size.

Consider the Brazilian Drosera very beautiful, but most are difficult to grow requiring special care to follow healthy for many years. Your plants are wonderful Daniel, thank you for sharing their pictures with us.

Best regards,

I'm glad to see these doing so well in europe!.

As Fernando said, in the wild they produce an ridiculous amount of seed. I don't know how these plants are not so much more widespread around Grão Mogol region .

Congrats (again..) Dani

Many thanks again.

Somehow i have not noticed your replies, probably because i´m in Bulgaria at the moment and i do not think a lot about my plants, lol.

In a few days i will be back in Germany so i will see if they indeed produce such a big number of seed. If it´s the case it´s really a wonder why this very nice species is not so widespread in nature.

Best regards,

Dani
