sprouting back to life after dormancy ( it was kept in full sun & on a tray of water all the time & has been producing leaf all along )

sprouting gemmae ( yeah rite )

die-ing off....

« Reply #2 on 3 Dec, 2007, 8:38 »oops, my bad...those are not side shoots...it`s 2 other intermedia peeking out from the side of the main plant.

Question : how come all dormant at the same time ? coz the main plant was growing for about 4 months before the other ones sprouted..... Link to Post - Back to Top Loggedvenusflytrapman

« Reply #3 on 9 Dec, 2007, 20:13 »I'd like a D. intermedia, they are so easy to grow, but I would have to ask for the collection of seeds, but finding the owner of the land is going to be difficult, and finding the plants themselves would be even more difficult... still, you have done pretty well with a temperate CP in such a hot climate. Can they be grown outside in Malaysia (obviously not for their dormancy)? Link to Post - Back to Top Loggedtarence

« Reply #4 on 10 Dec, 2007, 12:22 »They grow very well actually. Mine has decided to go dormant. It has however produced lotsa seeds for me. I managed to get another intermedia variant 2 weeks ago & shall post pics of it once it stabilises. It`s about twice the size of my current variety. Link to Post - Back to Top Logged
