Rosettes of sticky, green & pink colored plants, throwing up spikes of snowy white, star shaped flowers.

A human index finger next to the same white, star shaped flowers from the last photo, demonstrating their small size. The flowers are only about half the size of an index fingernail.

Drosera micrantha is well deserving of the name. These are adult plants & they’re absolutely tiny if you can’t tell.

New video on the YouTube! Midweek plant highlight, this time on Drosera menziesii, a tuberous species that's also beginner friendly!

Drosera natalensis babies.

#Drosera #Droseraceae 🌱

Drosera binata unfurling their long leaves which end in rows of trichomes (hairs) each of which bears a blob of sticky secretion to snare and digest small flies.

Cephalotus follicularis (the Albany Pitcher plant) growing in the shade, with its flat, semi-succulent winter leaves and a fresh lime green pitcher.

Cephalotus follicularis (the Albany Pitcher plant) growing in full sun, showing its darker colouration.

Several pots of Cephalotus follicularis (the Albany Pitcher plant) growing in full sun, showing its darker colouration. Starting to wake up now.

It’s Spring in the #greenhouse and the #CarnivorousPlants are waking up. The #Drosera are unfurling and will soon be a danger for #flies.

The #Cephalotus are also stirring. These have mostly been in the unheated section, roughing out the winter.

Drosera anglica “British Columbia” is flowering again!
For some reason the temperate versions have been a bit more reluctant to bloom for me but this form seems a bit more willing.
#drosera #sundew #carnivorousplants #plants #botany

One of the Drosera auriculata in bloom. Will it set seeds this time? Unsure, this particular one doesn’t seem very willing to do so…but since it grew with no issues and no burned shoot tips I have high hopes for daughter tubers at least.

Another highlight today: Drosera gigantea! It earns its name when mature, making many-branching almost treelike growth exceeding 3 feet tall, and inch-plus tubers that can be nearly 3 feet below ground to avoid desiccating.

Drosera subhirtella - Sunny Rainbow

One of the scrambling, carnivorous sundews endemic to Western Australia. The Sunny Rainbow's delicate yellow flowers can be seen between August and October.

Missed the first, but not the second: Drosera pulchella “orange flower, red center.”
Pygmies have been giving a lot of trouble the past couple years, but a few have been stable even with repotting. This is one of the happiest.

A phylogeny showing that Drosera anglica (2n = 40) has a subgenome from the Drosera linearis (2n = 20) lineage and a subgenome from the Drosera rotundifolia (2n = 20) lineage with photos of Drosera linearis with long, narrow leaves, Drosera rotundifolia with wider than round leaves, and Drosera linearis with intermediate, oblong leaves.

Back in bloom: Drosera cistiflora! The spectacular South African species that has the largest flower in the genus. I hoped the other pot keeping pace with it would follow suit, but that bud aborted, though I still hold hopes for salmon and purple

Drosera seedlings update. Drosera capensis "alba", D. natalensis, D. capensis "Red".

#Drosera #Droseraceae

Close up of a delicate white flower with several buds underneath. The centre of the flower shows long straight styles and a hint of pink. The buds are covered in short hairs on the outside of the sepals

Drosera erythrogyne

One of the scrambling species of Drosera endemic to the southern coast of Western Australia near Albany. This one was seen growing near a granite outcrop in Torndirrup National Park in September.

Tiens, ce matin, dans la serre sans toit, je m'aperçois que les #Drosera filiformis se réveillent déjà. C'est plutôt tôt. 🤷🏻‍♂️ 🌱

Vue de la serre avec less Sarracenia et les Drosera fanés.

Un pot de Drosera aliciae qui a bien résisté au gel, les autres autour sont quasi tous fanés.

Un autre Drosera encore à peu près en forme.

Un Drosera pygmé encore présentable, avec des gemmes au cœur de la rosette.

Hello le BlueSky
Un petit tour dans la serre. La plupart des #PlantesCarnivores sont en hibernation. Repos jusqu'au printemps. Quelques #Drosera ont résisté au gel, mais dans l'ensemble à peu près tout est fané.
Bon #EnfinDredi le BlueSky 👋🏻

Haven’t shared much in a while, so here’s a sexy plant closeup:
