Excellent. If you capitalize the "D" in Drosera you have a perfectly acceptable method of identifying this plant, which, as yet, has no valid registered cultivar name. It includes important identification/descriptive adjectives, often necessary when a plant has not yet been registered as a cultivar, yet it is not formatted in such a way that it misleads us to assume it is a valid cultivar.
Umm, I misread the seed pack. He clearly spelled filiformis correctly... I screwed up on that and added the extra L. Oops. I don't care for common names of anything anymore, it screws me up and leaves everyone scratching their heads.
Now about my D. filiformis seed babies, they are growing for me and I am absolutely thrilled. They get a little bit redder every day.
Say bugweed, are you familiar with the seed I have? Is it D. filiformis, Red form Washington County, Florida?
Wow, Laura!!!!! How did you know that!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?(LOLOL) I am real sure. My friend, Joe Mazrimas, is the one that brought them into cultivation. That is where he found them. So far as I know, there are no other red form fili's.
Oh my gosh! Hi Steve. I sent photos of my red babies to a girlfriend and she asked me what I had named them. I told her-
Red Baby #1
Red Baby #2
Red Baby #3
and so forth and so on!
I think you should be creative and come up with something new and unique when you name yours. Don't be a copy cat!
