Well, I do not have adults of any of those specifics (except the cisti) but I'll run a tuberous thread here in a bit once I get the camera out on them
Never had a issue with either of those thankfully.
How about plant sex? The birds and the bees and such.
Drosera macrophylla ssp macrophylla "Wongan Hills, WA" flower

Well, it isn't a tuberous Drosera but it is something unique. Drosera meristocaulis, the second generation.
Without fanfare last year Ivan Snyder was able to successfully cross pollinate two plants from the original batch of seeds distributed by Fernando Rivadavia several years ago. This species does not appear to self-pollinate or be self-fertile. It is extremely difficult to cultivate. Don't expect any more seed anytime soon. Ivan no longer has the parent plants (given away).
Most recent seedling. Silver objects are common straight pins. Gives you an idea of the size:

That hs to be the coolest-looking pygmy sundews.

Yes, a pygmy Drosera from South America that does not produce gemmae. Photos of parent plants can be seen here:

I don't have any really rare plants, but here is my contribution. I got these tubers from you a few months ago, Pyro. So far, these are the only two tubers that have popped up (no d. gigantea yet )
d. peltata var foliosa
d. peltata var gracilis
My first peltata to start "climbing." I got these as seeds in a trade a while back.
