YaronR Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 If you are looking to start, go for capensis. They are VERY easy to grow, and you will have seed as well very quickly. Sent from my phone, so sorry for mistakes. My growlist can be found at: http://ysraz.com/general/myself/yarons-grow-list/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yossu Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 If you don't mind spending a little more, but getting VERY good quality plants, I highly recommend Hants. I'm still a beginner, and have successfully grown D. Capensis (grows like a weed, can't really go wrong with this one), D. Binata, D. Spatulata and D. Nidiformis. I highly recommend any of those. There are loads more, but I have found those very easy to grow and very rewarding for a beginner like me. All were grown on a windowsill, then put outside for the winter (capensis and binata). Hope that helps. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yossu Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 Also worth pointing out that most Drosera are pretty easy to propagate, so you only need one of each, and you can easily turn it into a house full! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
