Cross pollination of D. adelae

Hello everyone. Recently I was fortunate enough to have two genetically different Drosera adelae clones flower at the same time. I'm in the process of cross pollinating the flowers in the hopes that they will produce viable seed, no easy task with this species. Anyway, I will be posting updates to this thread for you guys from flower to finish for better or worse, so enjoy!

I was in a hurry taking these first photos, but I hope it's at least informative or interesting.

Left is the standard clone, right is the "white" or "creme" flower form

Thanks! More updates as they come along.
 
Very interesting. Good luck indeed with those flowers.
