Khoas, nice collection, very beautiful. Please confirm what was in the first photo, spatulata or burmanii (Sorry not so sure how to determine between the two).

Also very interesting potting mix you have there, please share your potting mix info? :)

Re: Sundew photos
 

arvin, those are pygmy sundews...my guess is that they are probably d.pygmaea.....i stand corrected as the pic isn`t too clear.

Re: Sundew photos
 

No pymgea in the pots. The species and hybrids are nitidula ssp allostigma, roseana, pulchella and peltata (Light green plant in the upper middles) The hybrids are Lake Carbarup, and Badgerup, nitidula x puchella.

Potting mix is 50/50 peat moss and white quartz sand. Basically what I use for most of my collection of Dionaea, Drosera and Utrics.

Re: Sundew photos
 

Thanks for the info Khoas about potting mix. I really however couldn't ID which hybrid was which :)
