Re: D. Binata Flower Picture
Has anyone actually collected and germinated D. Binata seeds?
The reason I asked is that the flowers in the photo has long since dried up and blackened, and what I usually do with all my Drosera flowers is to test the lowest (oldest) flower for seeds, and when I squeezed out the dried black flower, I noticed really really really small "black elongated dust" came out and stuck on my finger. Should have taken photos, will try soon. I am not sure if these are actually Binata seeds, but they are very small. In fact I'd even say maybe smaller but a bit longer than D. Burmanii seeds.
I then sowed them on some of my pots with other plants to see if they germinate, I also just now made a new pot and mixed Binata and Spatulata seeds to germinate as well. I will report back, but I am wondering if anyone has been sucessful in germinating Binata seeds and know what they look like? At the end of the day I still say easiest way for Binata propagation is leaf cuttings!
