You've got to be kidding me...

Okay.. so let's take a look at some of the variety available for insects on my grow shelf...

We've got.. a carpet of dewy pygmeas to the left...

LOL!!!

That's HILARIOUS. It's like the size of the plant and barely on yet it's caught LOL.
 
The little Drosera that could!

"I know I can...I know I can.."

I use... a Panasonic Lumix FZ7. Pretty new too, I just got it a little while ago.. still struggling to get the hang of it though.

I just wish I knew what kind of seedling that was. It popped up in a pot that I sowed Byblis lamellata in and I know it's not that. :p

Thanks for the compliments!
 
Dang. At least it wasn't a cranefly...
Btw, I love your P. 'Aphrodite'
 
wooo

that's pretty awesome. I love your pygmies, they are adorable!
I love the carpet effect they get with enough of them.. just beautiful.

Seems a capensis seedling, but as seedling it can look like lots of other sundews...
I'm just blaming the usual suspect :D

Thanks, I guess it likes the lights I have it under.

Yeah I was worried that they'd be all crowded but now I can't wait for them to flower! It's gonna look like a forest on top of another forest!

That's actually the first thing I thought, but I really hope not. I hope it's something rare and mysterious.. since I got the seeds from a place that specializes in rare seeds. It has been growing incredibly fast.. so it probably IS some kind of capensis. :/
