Sharing a few more:
The D. hookeri are big, and forming multiple growth points, but refuse to climb

2 of my stolonifera, however, have good stems

And while the hookeri are 2 years old, these auriculata Howden, Tasmania are only a couple months old, and look what they're doing

D. trinervia colony (also have a couple of mystery winter-growers in here as well, look like cistiflora relatives....)

D. platystigma "A"

D. roseana

And D. tracyi are waking up, and there's a flower stalk! Many cool hybrids to follow. I used to call them filiformis tracyi, but after growing these out now, I can see the differences myself

More shots
D. auriculata Howden climbing fast

trinervia always looks happy

D. tracyi with its double leaf (though, the tips got burnt by lights before I moved it, so the leaf is only 8" long)

D. natalensis flower

One of only 3 flower I've ever seen open on my capillaris FL Long Arm x intermedia

tomentosa isn't getting any bigger, so fingers crossed it may flower at some point

burmannii Humpty Doo

adelae is a weird one for me: at any one time, usually only one side of the pot looks nice

may need to thin out the prolifera soon too

More shots:
D. auriculata (the biggest one) reaching nearly 5" tall

After only a couple months of growing, D. platystigma "A" is flowering!

Dewy roseana field

2 of 5 D. regia seedlings, the biggest has 5" leaves (left)


And D. brevifolia all starting to flower

All sorts of amazing goodies^! Your regia certainly look robust and healthy.

Amazing regias. Awesome plants in general, but your regias are truly shining over all the others. You said they were seedlings and not plantlets from root cuttings? If so, what's your secret

[hcarlton]

Yes, seedlings (and I still have plenty of seeds I plan on messing with soon). Not really any secrets, but I follow the suggestions other people give: food, food, lots of food. I also occasionally give dilute fertilizer by the roots along with the hordes of fert-soaked bloodworms the things get.

Nice regia! I'm getting my own in a few days, and I hope I can grow it as well as you do. Is there anything underneath the live sphagnum?

[hcarlton]

More sphagnum, mixed with some perlite. As an interesting experiment when these guys get big, the pot they're in was designed somewhat like lava rock (admittedly it's glazed though), with multiple small holes for roots to pop out of and make plantlets. My plants are a ways from that stage though.

D. burmannii "Humpty Doo"

D. burmannii 'Pilliga Red'


Not a sundew, but I find it fascinating how the corolla of Byblis fall off in one perfect piece

D. tomentosa

New hybrid, nidiformis x natalensis 'Tom Turpin'

D. affinis net

D. tracyi flower

And the whole pot

with the new split leaf

D. auriculata Howden, Tasmania getting taller. Also, one flowered today, and it was pink!

Double leaf on aliciae

roseana

scorpioides "Pink flower"

D. platystigma "A" are forming a nice field

And one recently gifted me with this:

I love pygmies, they're so cute in their little colonies, and the flowers are so different from other Drosera. Great pics!
