  1. I decided to try growing a few #Drosera subg. Bryastrum this year, and they really live up to their common name. They are TINY! The biggest one pictured is about 13mm across.

  6. De eerste rouwmugjes zijn opgedoken! M'n zonnedauwplantjes, die ernaast staan, helpen meteen met ze te bestrijden. #moestuin #pepertoot #peppers #Drosera #FungusGnats

  8. Waxlip orchid ((Glossodia / Caladenia major) with sundew (Drosera sp. - probably D. auriculata) near Mallacoota, East Gippsland, VIC.

    Lots of both sundews and orchids out here in coastal heathland heading into spring - but hot/dry weather since then has seen both suffer a bit in recent weeks.

  10. Caladenia catenata (White Fingers) flowering amongst tall sundews near Gipsy Point, VIC. Large numbers of these sundews (I'm presuming Drosera auriculata) occur here in both open forest and heathland - often alongside various spring orchid species.

  12. Interesting small sundew (Drosera sp.) out in heathland near Genoa, VIC on the last orchid scout.

    Red basal rosette and compact size suggest that it might be D. peltata (as it is now described in Victoria) which is not that common in East Gippsland. Most other taller Drosera out in large numbers between Genoa and Mallacoota probably look more like D. auriculata - although hard to tell for certain without seeing flowers and seeds on both forms.

  14. Autant en rire.. alignement spectaculaire cette nuit entre l'antenne du Roc Trédudon, le croissant de lune et Vénus.. à défaut de nuages noctulescents vraiment bien visibles ici.. levé à 3h16, plein d'espoir.. j'ai souvent été gâté le 24 juin, avec notamment les #nlc très haut dans le ciel, au-dessus du menhir de Penglaouic en 2021, un superbe pilier solaire en 2015….Mais bon, la chapelle du Mont-Saint-Michel de Brasparts encadrée par un croissant de lune et Vénus dans une belle lumière, suivie après le lever du jour de #menhir #tourbiere #drosera #narthecie #orchis #lin #sorciere c'était bien aussi

  24. #StandingStoneSunday allée couverte du Mougau Bihan à Commana, dimanche dernier, #Finistere #Bretagne #megalithe #dolmen finistere.en-photo.fr/megalith
    Pour info, dans la tourbière à une centaine de mètres de l'allée couverte, les plants de #drosera rotundifolia, linaigrette et orchis tâcheté sont magnifiques.

  25. Restje potgrond van vorig jaar gebruikt bij het verspenen. Gevolg: nogal veel rouwmuggen bij m'n paprika- en peperplantjes. Een paar zonnedauwplantjes helpen met de bestrijding.🙂

  26. Note to self: het wordt tijd om deze zonnedauwzaailingen te verpotten. #zonnedauw #sundew #drosera

  27. Zonnedauw naast en tussen de jonge peperplantjes zetten helpt uitstekend om rouwmuggen te bestrijden.👍

  28. Friday. Plant day. Something.
    More tuberous #Drosera waking up. Picked this Drosera rupicola up as dormant tuber towards the end of fall, and it's finally getting going. Spectacular little plant. #Sundews #CarnivorousPlants #Photography #Macro #Gardening

  29. It feels like everyone who grows these has had a late start this season, but it's finally that tuberous #drosera time of year again.

    A couple of views of my D. tubaestylis, the first of my tuberous to get going. Two different plants from the same pot. One smaller specimen, the other flowering size.

  30. Bij het wegknippen van verdorde blaadjes van een zonnedauwplantje zag ik enkele spontaan uitgekomen zaailingen.🙂 #Zonnedauw #Drosera #DroseraCapensis

  31. Lift-off.

    The #Drosera hookeri I started from seeds this year are nearing the end of their season, and are starting to send up their aerial stems.

    I don't expect flowers this year, with the plants still so young, but I've been feeding and fertilizing these like wild, so we'll see what happens.

  36. These are not great photos, but I will keep trying. #DroseraCoccicaulis “Alba” is flowering. #sundew #drosera #insectivores #houseplants #flowers I was not prepared for how often sundew bloom. That is such a delight!
