And if so, what kind of dew is it? That's the "red" sphagnum I brought home from the bog, and I found this growing in it tonight.

I need to check Schnell's range map, but I believe that that's D. rotundifolia.

leaf blade wider than long was the key character. might be a bit small to see. but one leave seems to be the case.

yeah, it is tiny.. Pretty tough to get pics of at the moment. It is a dew though right?

i think i have had this species germinate from plain old peat or LFS. Could tell it didnt like my too warm temps as compared to D. rotundoflolia 'Charles Darwin'.

Very nice little dew you have there. Love the red sphagnum too.

dunno. YMMV. I have issues with 80F days. too much UV light and humidity dropping at night to the 40%. You live in the zone where they grow. Hard to compare......
