D. scorpiodes

[homer]

Here's a picture I took this morning of my D. scorpiodes.  I recieved the gemmae from BigCarnivourKid back on 11/13/03.  My pygmy Drosera seem to like the 8" pots I made out of PVC tubing.

Wow, looks much better then mine... What conditions do you keep them in? Like soil media and stuff

 

[jimscott]

How tall and wide are they?

Very nice Homer! It seem your deep pots are rewarding you!

 

[homer]

Peter, the plants are a few inches away from 2x 4 foot fluorescent bulbs.  Soil medium is equal parts silica sand and peat moss.  Water level 1/2 way up the pot using the tray system. I do top water them and mist them at least once a week.  


jimscott, they are about 1 inch x 1 inch.  That's a little on the conservative side...

I saw your PVC pipe pot and loved the idea! That is perfect for pygmies. I have a bunch of those lying around that I should use the same way! Thanks for the idea!
