Hi Folks:
We went out in the field on Friday and validated the occurrence of the northern most population of Drosera capillaris known. The site is pretty amazing since the population only occurs in an area of 20 x 50 feet and is on the piedmont province of Virginia and west of the City of Fredericksburg, VA in Spotsylvaia County. I am contacting the homeowners association and we are going to make some recommendations to ensure the colony is successfully managed. The sundew population is also going to offer some interesting research opportunities. You can see some photographs of the site on our Facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/pages/Meadowview....49341218?ref=ts
Sincerely,
Phil Sheridan, Ph.D.
