Here's an "awesome" picture of my one-n-only drosera burmannii humpty doo red seedling.
Taken with a clock magnifying lense and an iPhone camera. :D

Homedawg76: Mother of thousands....

Well it feels as if the Dog Days of Summer are finally upon me, with the heat many things are picking up. Some of the winter growers decided to start waking up (one after 10-11 months of dormancy). Others are going to sleep.

D. cistiflora - channeling D. trinervia

Drosera madagascarensis - doing great after dying back from being choked out by D. aliciae - repotted.

Hmmm, my ultramafica looks like crap, hopefully the leaf cuttings will strike and I can start fresh.. Need to feed the plants as well...

Is that an inermis upper I see in your picture? :0o:
LOL - I don't know ??? (how the heck did you pick that out?) It appears to be transitioning to uppers but the last pitcher still had a small peristome. It IS definitely starting to vine though as I've got to keep repositioning it to keep the new growth out of the lights. :censor:

I've taken a shot of someone else's before that looked a lot like that - http://i817.photobucket.com/albums/zz100/thez_yo/nep house of joel/PA160033.jpg

And woohoo! :hi5: How tall is it then? A foot? Mine was already kind of tall when I got it from Wistuba but I'd say it's only 4" or 5" tall and definitely still has peristomes. They definitely... it's sort of a cresent moon/convex shape lid when it's still pasted to the top of the pitcher before it opens on the top if it's an upper. If it's still flat across I think it's not an upper yet. Here's some other of those upper pitcher pictures if it helps determine it http://i817.photobucket.com/albums/zz100/thez_yo/nep house of joel/PA160034.jpg && http://i817.photobucket.com/albums/zz100/thez_yo/nep house of joel/PA160011.jpg && http://i817.photobucket.com/albums/zz100/thez_yo/nep house of joel/PA160032.jpg. I wish I had managed to snag a shot of the side of an unopened pitcher :down:.

Close :clap: It's roughly 13" of stem - not counting the last few inches of developing pitcher & petiole.

Yeah - I was thinking that also - Isn't this a dew forum & a dew thread? LOL

To keep this on topic (as he quickly trots to basement to snap a pic) --- a few D. prolifera in the bottom of one of my tanks

Great looking sundews!

Thought I'd post some of mine since I love sundews.

My latest acquisition. I've always wanted a graomogolensis ever since I saw sundewman's, so this summer I acquired some. They were in the mail for 3 weeks and the summer was starting to get too hot. I thought I would get mush by then, but they were fine when I received them.
In a low light terrarium,

and one outside on a shady area beside a regia that doesn't like the heat.

Drosera regias and binatas,

and an old pic of Drosera paradoxa, one early morning. Wish I had a better camera.

I need to get my plants up and moving again, these pics put me horribly ot shame. That is a lot of regias, and great work on those graomos guys!

I was able to almost capture the sparkling dewy goodness of some of my outdoors Drosera today.

D. scorpioides

D. trinervia - looks like some D. venusta seedlings in the pot. They'll get weeded out when the D. trinervia goes dormant and I let the pot dry out.
