Lutz Posted November 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2014 (edited) Hi, first thx. @ JP: The color of the D. zoneria was only a few days like this. At this time the plants were standing outside and two sunny days changed the pink into a red. Yes, I saw the small plant, too and 2 days after I took the picture the small one was covered by the big leaves of the D. magna. I put it a little bit aside, between the leaves. If it is overgrown again I have to take it out and I do not like to take out tuberous drosera when they are growing.

Ian_P Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 Great pictures and really nice looking plants! I'm still waiting for my D. Platypoda to sprout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lutz Posted November 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 Hi, @ Ian: I am waiting for D. platypoda, too. There are at least for me several tuberous, which are notorious late riser. These include, for example, D. humilis , D. fimbriata , D.platypoda and a few others. On the other hand, there are also notorious early riser , eg. D. erythrorhiza, D. stolonifera and almost all of the simpler species eg. D. peltata , D. auriculata , D. macrantha.

Lutz Posted December 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2014 (edited) Hi, my Drosera rupicola are in different stages. The last ones are about 1 cm and the most ones are flowering. This is a picture from about three weeks ago. Right now some plants flowered and some seed vessels seems to build seeds.

Lutz Posted January 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 Hi, here are some more pictures. First the tuberous drosera which is in my opinion the most photogenic one, Drosera platypoda. Doesn't matter from which point of view or in which state. This is Drosera purpurascens. OK, it's not so purpur or purple at the moment. and here some Drosera moorei which came out about 3 or 4 weeks ago.

meizwang Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 (edited) Wow, great photographs, and well grown! Lutz: What soil mix are you using, and are these under supplemental lights? If they have supplemental lights, what's the photoperiod? Also, do you fertilize, and if so, how do you do it? From this post by Phil Wilson: http://www.cpukforum.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=6579 he mentioned he used 1 part potting loam mixed with sand for tuberous sundews, and this prevents the need to feed or fertilize your plants, since the potting loam has nutrients. Does anyone have a photograph of the type of potting loam that works for tuberous sundews? I've never heard of using this mix,but it sounds like having 3 parts sand dilutes it to the point that it's not too strong for CP's. Perhaps something similar to this mix (ie. 1/4 potting loam to 3/4 inert material) would be worth experimenting with as a substitute for peat moss...if it works for tuberous sundews, it may work for most other CP's.

Lutz Posted November 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 Hi, again ... some pictures of tuberous sundews. First a drosera erythrorhiza from an uncommon perspective: another Drosera erythrorhiza with some leaves at places where you did not expect them to grow. A Drosera basifolia forest. the one and only Drosera zonaria and finally Drosera squamosa. Will be continued. Best regards Lutz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lutz Posted December 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2015 (edited) Hi, here are some more tuberous sundews: First a closer view on D. basifolia: than a young and growing D. porrecta: followed by a D. prostratoscaposa: and a "stray tuber", probably a D. macrantha: Will be continued.
