It's been one of dem days
It was new and clean with lots of room to grow things
.
Soon, however, the terrarium became crowded
So the owner took out all the plants except this D. capensis (seen in a pic from happier times) which he had foolishly planted in the LFS covering the bottom of the terrarium
Although the D. capensis fluorished for a while, it began to languish, whether from loneliness or spite I haven't figured out, and eventually died. The terrarium was allowed to dry out for several months (No pics. I didn't want to traumatize any newbies who might read this.
) until the owner aquired some Cephalotus seeds.
Being an ingenious fellow, he decided to use the terrarium to sprout the seed which he planted in a pot and placed in the terrarium. He then carefully dumped a gallon of RO water into the moss in the bottom of the terrarium to improve humidity. The weeks passed and low and behold he sees sprouts popping up!! Unfortunately it wasn't the Cephalotus.
It seems D. capensis thrives on abuse as does D. spatulata and moss
I'd take the out the pot I put in with the Cephalotus seeds, but I'm afraid to put my hand in there nowadays. The D. capensis might try to take revenge on me.
