Re: Aldrovanda in Indonesia
Dave, Aldrovanda grows incredibly fast, much faster than terrestrial CPs. Some people have managed to get the tropical forms growing indoors, but it's extremely labor intensive and expensive, with CO2 pumps and all, and the plants still don't get the same red color and robust stature as they should.
The best way is to grow them outdoors, in a shallow pool with large grass-like plants that have massive root systems, and have the Aldrovanda strands growing in just a few inches of water directly above those roots. - Rich
