I've got a magic window!
Here are some macro pictures of some sticky plants I took today with a new accessory for my camera. I got some extension tubes. I'm very happy with the results.

Let’s make a little game out of this.
2 incorrect names are in the following list. Are you able to identify the plant picture with correct name? (Make answers letter followed by the number. Example A-6. I may see what I have extra to send to the person with the most correct answers.)

Your Plant Name Choices:
1) Drosera adelae
2) Drosera aliciae
3) Drosera capensis 'Albino'
4) Drosera capensis - Typical
5) Drosera regia
6) Drosera filiformis
7) Drosera indica
8) Drosera ordensis X paradoxa
9) Drosophyllum lusitanicum

Thanks again for the comments.
I have some ideas to get better pics that I want to try. These where the first shots I tried with the extension tubes without experimenting.

Hope everyone enjoyed playing.

Here are the correct answers.

A-4 : D. capensis Typical
B-5 : D. regia
C-1 : D. adelae
D-8 : D. ordensis X paradoxa
E-9 : Drosophyllum lusitanicum
F-3 : D. capensis 'Albino'
G-2 : D. aliciae

The first person that got them all correct was CP_dude. :hail:

For him being the first with all the correct answers I'm sending some seeds and gemmae off to him. This is what he is getting:

VFT's
Drosera filiformis var. filiformis FL Red
Drosera scorpioides - Gemmae
Drosera spatulata

Good luck with the seeds.


xvart,
Sorry you did not have them correct. I had every intention to send you my N. hamata if you had them all correct. :crazy: :-))

Hmmmm... I'm sure one of the mods "administratively edited" my answers so I wouldn't win! Fun contest anyway.
