Wow, great plants Grandmaster! I particularly like the closeup of the Drosera huegelii leaf as I'd never seen this before. Are these native to Australia? Looking forward to hearing/seeing more from you! Welcome to PP!

First off Drosera erythrogyne, the worlds largest Drosera at over 3 meters tall but it has some of the smallest leaves!. This species is Extremley rare in culture and only found in a few collections.

Drosera zonaria, not very good so I will try to get a better shot at a later date.

Again, great to see these species that (I believe) most of us never get a chance to see! That D. zonaria looks like an aerial view of a fountain! How much of a rarity is it to find that one? It's another 'first timer' for me to see and I love it! I think you are gonna be real popular in the Drosera section of this forum grandmaster!

You won't be able to grow any tuberous species except for native Drosera peltata in your tropical countrys, they need cool winter periods to grow.

Some new ones taken this morning, a wee bit out of focus because I was on the run to get out of town.

Drosera granticola

Drosera hetrophylla

Drosera marchantii ssp.prophylla

Drosera moorei
