Hey all!
Since only starting CP growing earlier this year, I've only gotten one batch of pygmy Drosera gemmae so far, which is D. occidentalis x pulchella.
I'd really like to expand my collection of these cool little guys, while hopefully doing the same for other folks.

I recently acquired a pot of Occidentalis sp Occidentalis Drosera. I plan to keep them indoors with the rest of my drosera under a T5HO fixture at about 16 hours a day of light (using the tray method). Will I need to eventually lower the light levels in order for them to make gammae? Won't they...
My pygmy sundews are still producing gemmae in profusion, but I've planted up all the space I can spare for them. There is only one solution, it's time for a giveaway! To receive gemmae I will ask for a small shipping fee (Christmas has wiped me out for now).
I have gemmae from D. pulchella, D...
I currently have gemmae available for trade from D.omissa "Pink Flower" and D.rosea. I'm looking for gemmae from Pygmy Drosera that I don't currently grow. No hybrids please.

This is where I'll post about my indoor collection. I decided to be so public with it because I am very serious about making it better (all within means of course!). I recently lost a great many of my older plants, though a few decade + ones survived my year off at university. As I plan on...
Hello all,
I bought a trio of this hybrid from D'Amato in 2005, and it grew like wildfire. It was irresistibly pretty, so I put it in a wide 14 inch pot and let the thing carpet it over a period of 7 years. It never really seemed to produce gemmae regularly or often. When it did, gemmae were...

I've had a couple "shots in the arm" with pygmy sundew gemmae and other assorted things, but what was once a thriving collection of butterworts is down to just a few. I am also missing a few basic sundews, like D. adelae, anglica, and aliciae. Here's my current grow list. Those with asterisks I...
Once I was in a store and there was a corner in which some really strange plants were standing.
They shall eat meat or something like that and they are probably dangerous. No risc no fun. I took one of the glistening with the sticky leaves.

Hi everyone,
I haven't been able to grow Pygmies here really well as they tend to go dormant with the ambient heat. However, the TC ones which have recently been planted out are flowering non-stop and one species is producing seed. If I didn't get the ID wrong, it is the D. occidentalis ssp...
It's that time of year again.
I'm looking for any Pygmy Drosera I don't grow. I lost my Drosera gibsonii colony this year and would love to get a replacement.
My current grow list.
Drosera allantostigma
Drosera callistos
Drosera callistos -Brookton form
Drosera citrina
Drosera closterostigma...
