Plantfreak Posted August 18, 2020 Report Share Posted August 18, 2020 Are there any easy pygmy drosera or tuberous drosera that a newbie like me could grow without a greenhouse, or even on a windowsill in a container with some air holes possibly? (The humidity on my windowsill is around 42 percent, just in case I could grow it without a cover to ensure humidity) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argo88 Posted August 18, 2020 Report Share Posted August 18, 2020 Hi! I grow drosera roseana and drosera pulchella without greenhouse and cover;-) there are also quite easy hibryds of pigmy sundews... better if you wait 2 months: in autumn starts gemmae time;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanqueray Posted August 18, 2020 Report Share Posted August 18, 2020 Many pygmy Drosera can be grown on a windowsill, as long as it gets sufficient sun. They aren’t generally fussy about humidity, accept for when they’re growing from gemmae for a few weeks. I’d recommend D. scorpioides, pygmaea, gibsonii, leucoblasta, micrantha all as easy species, but many others are also easy to grow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plantfreak Posted August 19, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2020 Thanks to both of you, I was actually already considering drosera pulchella because the name was easier to remember. I’ll probably just label the pots at this point. I was getting tired of trying to remember all those names :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
