I like the colouration on whittakerii ssp whittakerii. But still zonaria is so unique.

May I know how your Hamiltonii is doing and how you are keeping them? I just got one from Japan, doesn't look like it's doing anything yet, still acclimitizing maybe. The Filiformis that I got with it is already showing growths.

I did a search for caresheets already but would appreciate your first hand experience. Potting mix, light, water, etc. They don't really dew do they?

Drosera hamiltonii is a shade house plant, like Cephalotus it like cool roots. Use standard 50 / 50 mix. I find a 4 or 5" allow the laterial roots to form new plants. Under right conditions it will dew up. I find it like more shade than it other WA counterparts. Stand in water. They do come from perment swamps.

Cool! Very very important information there! So maybe partial shade, and wants moisture. Will try to give it that, and then hopefully I can see it dew

Thanks very much!
