Well judging by recent discussion here, if the crown is completely hairy so that there are hairs on the lamina on the back of the leaf (like the crown of my plants), then it is likely D. natalensis.
From what I've read, Broadleaf shouldn't be considered synonymous with Bains Kloof, but there are several forms of D. capensis from Bains Kloof in South Africa that do have a broad lamina. But Bains Kloof is just the location name.
How do you feed those seedlings? I notice some small plants at the foot of your Capensis in one of those shots, which I assume are Capensis seedlings. Definitely about 10x bigger than mine - I've got a handful growing that have stayed the same size for a month or two. You need to feed them to get them to grow, right? But how do you feed something so tiny!
I use freezed dried bloodworms. I take a screwdriver and rotate it in the cannister until the food is pulverized into a powder. I put the food in a spice container and sprinkle it over the leaves.

I fed mine today using a similar method. Bloodworms, had them in my (gloved) hand, and crushed and sprinkled them. Some big chunks got on the leaves. That OK?
