Yossu Posted December 1, 2015 Report Share Posted December 1, 2015 Those are just stunning! Please can you share details of the growing conditions. Specifically, what mix are they planted in, what '(if any) lighting do you have, what humidity is there around them, etc. Anything you can share would be great. You've really got me interested! Thanks for the beautiful pics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lutz Posted December 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 Hi again, here are some more pictures. First a D. zonaraia, the same which is on the picture above but from another perspective: and the flowers of D. prostratoscaposa opened and a growing Drosera moorei I grow all the tuberous drosera in the cellar under T5 ligths. The temperatures are right now about 10 °C at night and maybe 15 to 20 °C at daytime and the humidity is about 30 % I think. Tuberous Drosera are not so picky in the case of humidity. The very most of the them I grow in peat : sand+gravel 50:50 apart from some specials. Best regards Lutz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lutz Posted December 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2015 Hi, here are some more pictures. First some flowers of tuberous sundews: That's a nearly open flower of Drosera heterophylla and here the same flower opened with 10 petals. Lowrie reported up to 12 petals for Drosera heterophylla. Next are two close up's from flowers, first Drosera zigzagia and next Drosera planchonii. The next two pictures are from species which are not seen so often. First Drosera prophylla and next Drosera hirsuta. The next ones are Drosera ramellosa and Drosera aff. stolinifera mini Hills form. Here is a young Drosera aff. bulbosa El Caballo Blanco form. Will be continued. Best regards from Berlin Lutz 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
