Quote[/b] (D muscipula @ May 20 2004,10:26)]Good grief, didn't you just send me the gemmae about 9 months ago? What are you doing to those poor plants?
Is this the time of the year for scorpiodes to go dormant and produce gemmae? A few of mine are looking a bit bristly, but i don't see any gemmae.
In this link is an excellent treatise on the life cycle of a pigmy sundew, such as D. scorpiodes. They normally go dormant in summer and produce gemmae in november. this is all new to me and so I am crossing my fingers as I await dormancy.
The last gemmae I sent out were back in the end of November through January so it was about 3 to 4 months ago. As for what did I do to the poor guys, I haven't a clue. Only one of my two pots of scorpioides has produced this second batch of gemmae. They should be flowering instead of producing gemmae. They shouldn't need dormancy for a few months yet.
