Triffid Park Visit (Image intensive)
 
Being unsure where to post this, I thought this is a neutral enough thread. My family and I went to Melbourne over the Chinese New year break. Visit Triffid Park courtesy of Adam aka strath76. Thanks again Adam. It was a wonderful trip until I realised that my camera was running out of battery..... forgotten to charge the night before. Here are some pictures while in Triffid Park, not many though...

Drosera?? microscarpa I think
https://forum.petpitcher.net/picture....pictureid=1302

Drosera pygmaea (Kangaroo Island). Smaller than the one Adam and I found later in Langwarrin. The only pygmea found outside Western Australia from South Eastern Australia to Kangaroo Island, South Australia

Sarracenia Room

This is the most impressive room with hundreds of mature Sarra filling the trays with green and red colours

Many of them hybrids which is so rojak (mixed up) that I don't know where to start guessing.

Glad to be of assistance. The Drosera is D. dilatato-petiolaris.

Triffid Park is a retail/wholesale nursery located about an hour south east of Melbourne. Inspection is by appointment only. They do have a mail order service available.
