Hello Tf,
i had a question regarding drosera i guess cultivars/clones? So as far as i know you can get seeds from various drosera, but what do you call the seed that a specific cultivar/clone makes?
example: drosera capensis, (typical, alba, red, broadleaf)
i think i read somewhere that all cultivars or clones are a result of mutation. but if say drosera capenis red flowers and produces seed, there is the chance of the plant not looking anything like its parents.
other examples: drosera spatulata(fraser island, typical) forms, drosera burmannii(beerwah, typical, hongkong red, red giant) forms
if i was to grow these from seed and continue to grow the offspring of say multiple clones all together would i eventually just call them one species? or how are these seeds id'd?
Please correct me if they arent cultivars?
just a question i was thinking about
thanks
