I think there is several chemicals release by the gum trees also involed, with some non CP natives, heat itself.
I have seen the SA version of the stricticularis in cultivation, once. An ACPS member from Port Lincolin brought pot in several years ago. It smaller in all parts than it WA counterpart. It found in one swamp south of the Airport. He reported it took 5 years to reach heigh of about 11cm. I have heard a rumour of Drosera ramellosa in the very tip of Eyre Peniusla.
Anyone got seeds of stricticularis ?
Greg Bourke Reports that nearly all the species require two seperate clones to produce any viable quantity of seed, You can also make Tuberous Drosera Hybrids such as Greg and I have done recently.

I watched a TV program on the discovery of Ethylene in 1994, it was the only single chemical responcible for bush regeneration, Heat itself has nothing to do with Tuberous Drosera.

Time for some more photos I think.

Drosera peltata "Richmond, NSW"

Drosera macrantha ssp.emerae also known now as Stricticularis ssp.emerae which makes more sence to me.

Drosera stolonifera ssp. stolonifera "type form"


More later-
