Re: My D. Intermedia
 

The plant looks very healthy. Well grown and a beautiful intermedia.

Re: My D. Intermedia
 

I started this plants on last year.

I get this species seed from other forum and the seed was sow on Sept'2009 and some of the plants was flowerage on last month. I hope can get some seed to sow and donate it. :shy:

Re: My D. Intermedia
 

I received 2 bath of seed for D. Intermedia from different friend. But the size of plant was different.

https://forum.petpitcher.net/attachme...1&d=1270474606
This plant more bigger.

https://forum.petpitcher.net/attachme...1&d=1270474606

Do both of them are D. intermedia?
Do D. intermedia have different size and category?:shy:

Please advice

Thank you

Re: My D. Intermedia
 

They look like the same size....? i think it's a Drosera intermedia 'Great Swamp'...maybe :P

Re: My D. Intermedia

Re: My D. Intermedia
 

From the first few photos, it seems neither "great swamp" nor "cuba". I am told this might most probrably be a hybrid between Intermedia and Rotundifolia; D. x Beleziana. Or under the trade name "California Sunset" perhaps. Maybe Lim can give you better answer.

Re: My D. Intermedia
 

Both are D. intermedia. Should be Cuba and Great Swamp. Check with the people who you get these sundew from.

Re: My D. Intermedia
 

Ok...

Re: My D. Intermedia
 

my binata flowered many times b4 and i was told that binata wont give u seed if u have single plant.. u might need another binata flower to "kiss" their flowers. I wil let you know once my flower bloom again next round, see wat we can get...

Re: My D. Intermedia
 

i just got some burmanni, and spathulata in 5 cents size, grow from seeds, i cut their flowers and put them on moss, and they finally grow up after 2-3 weeks...

Re: My D. Intermedia
 

OK.

Hope our plant bloom on same time:smile:

Re: My D. Intermedia
 

Oooo......

Can you put the photo or advice where to cut the flowers?
So, I can do the same method to get more plant :shy:

As my understanding, seed for D.burmanni is the smaller.

Re: My D. Intermedia
 

most drosera seed is tiny and always fly to other pots. i cut the flower stalk once i see the flower dried, i lazy to open the flower to get the seed, so i cut the flower and just leave them on the wet moss, give it 2-3 weeks, u wil see something growing up. then i use tiny tweezer to separate them to give more space to grow

Re: My D. Intermedia

Re: My D. Intermedia
 

Dear allenphoon,
I also purchase the Drosera seed from Seed Bank but not yet received it. Current on hand D.burmanii seed was given by a friend.


Dear cbkhoon,

Noted and thank for sharing.

Re: My D. Intermedia
 

Dear pwarrioor,

Thank you

Do you plant Drosera also?

Re: My D. Intermedia
 

Oh...then wish the best for you and me...hehe
But just a question? Who got sell GA3? Because if just buy one will got a lot.....

Re: My D. Intermedia
 

I do not sure who sell for GA3.
I did not use it.

Re: My D. Intermedia
 

did your Drosera seeds germination rate is high? How long does it takes to germinate??

Re: My D. Intermedia
 

Depand....

Between 2 week to 2 month....

My best record is 13 days.....

Re: My D. Intermedia
 

wow......if the media... i was using sphgnum moss as media, it's sphagnum become green(mostly growing algae) and some had revived, will it effect the rate of germination? If does, what can i do to save them?

Re: My D. Intermedia
 

I beleive there are no side effects since mine were OK.

Re: My D. Intermedia
 

plantlover- i was worrying about them because they are the first carnivorous plant seeds that i ever have....just scare all of them did not germinate...and then all then money will be wasted.........(if they did not germinate, huh)

Re: My D. Intermedia
 

Chill. Droseras seeds germinate very fast, allen. Amongst CPs, droseras are considered to be the easiest to grow from seeds. What kills seedlings though are careless handling, too much heat, submerging the seeds....etc.....which you most probably won't do on accident.

Re: My D. Intermedia
 

if i put it where it will receive bright sunlight on afternoon and a bit dim light at the other time, will it be okay for them?

Re: My D. Intermedia
 

I'm not sure for this.

Now I'm testing Drosera seed with different condition.
I'm using the seed from US, Seed Bank, my own and my friend to test it.
If base on time,
I get 2 plants after 13 days - seed given by my friend
Seed pruchase from US just 7 days
Seed pruchase from Seed Bank - just put them in media
My own seed - just put them in media ( 1 lot was fresh and 1 lot was keep in peti sejuk about 2 month )

We will know the result in 2 week time.

Re: My D. Intermedia
 

Some time we needs to try and try and some RnD.

don't worry, be happy :smile:

Re: My D. Intermedia
 

Should be OK.
I put them at Morning direct sunlight and bright sunlight until 6pm.

Re: My D. Intermedia
 

Just hope so....i did not saw any seeds from the media, scaring them already fall into the gap.... Can anyone spare me some fresh seeds? So that i can have seeds with higher germination rate.......:crying::crying:

Re: My D. Intermedia
 

Tentative I still can not give you the seed.......
be patient...:smile:
