Just got back from my vacation in Yellowstone to a wonderful surprise:
This was from a lot of around 50 seeds I got from the giveaway hosted by DragonsEye last month (thanks a ton!). So far, I've counted around 25 sprouts, with 3 on milled Sphagnum that I was too lazy to take a picture of, and the rest on 3:1 sand/peat. Has anyone else gotten germination from these, or better yet, does anyone have extensive experience with germinating this species (or anything else from the D. indica complex)? I'm mainly interested in seeing if the trend of higher germination rates on media continues, since a bunch of other species I've grown seem to germinate with more success in Sphagnum than the peat mix they grow in as adults. I know these guys have to be fed a ton, so I've got my Beta bits and tweezers ready.
