each time I see Drosera schizandra pictures I think it looks like an usual plant with this sundew glands on its leaves and, as we all can see Australia comes forward again as a place with unique and unusual plants (and other life forms)
Honestly didn't expect all that much but this is actually a fairly thorough run-down. Well done! If you haven't already time to make some videos of the closely related Byblis which also populate Australia :D The two versions of gigantea seem pretty neat-o!
All this time I thought I had a drosera spatulata but maybe it’s actually a capillaris? The differences are quite subtle for this newbie. I noticed red tentacles on the leaves today. Been struggling with it a bit trying to get it acclimated, so leaves were brown for a while. I think it’s on its way to being happy...I hope! Anyhow, thank you for the informative video. I don’t know how you keep them all straight!
I absolutely adore Drosera Hilaris! One of my favorites alongside D. Spiralis and D. Gigantea. You have no idea how hard is to find them. Where did you get your D. Hilaris seeds?
I'm wondering how you could grow tuberous drosera in America. I've been wanting to grow tuberous drosera but I don't know how because there is not much info on the internet.
Another video full of useful information thank you, i think we should call this channel the "Savage Kitchen", because you are full of really useful info and great content just like the book and you do your video's in your kitchen, lol, many thanks for this video.
Heya just came back from a trek. I saw a type of drosera that completely looks like shower heads, long stem with literally shower head shape at the end with the tentacles with the dews on end like 💦 have an idea what they are?
@@TheFlytrapGarden Oof each time i move it the precious rainwater from the tray thing spills ;-; i gues ill have to put litteraly every single bucket out when it rains D;
Hi! I know this is like a year ago thing, but I wanted to mention something very important that will not confuse the viewers. You mentioned that “Drosera are the same species but different variates” They are not the same species! They are the same Genus but different species. Just FYI.
The difficulty of keeping a plant can be misleading since it depends on conditions so much. For me, Drosera prolifera was much more reliable than adelae so much so that I'd call prolifera very easy and adelae difficult.
It did really well for me in East and North windowsills(in North America). It grew like a less picky adelae, just had to keep it on the humid side and the flowers made pups like crazy. I will say it gives up if you let the media dry out completely, unlike a lot of the South African species.

Thanks to you I know a lot more about these plant I hope your success will increase exponentially 😀
Thank you! I appreciate your kind words
Always interesting to learn a little something new! 👏🏽🙌🏽🙏🏽
I’m glad to hear that 😁

Could be possible! They’re very similar. But you’ll get used to them over time! Thank you😁

Where did you get your D. Hilaris seeds?
Yep they’re beautiful! A friend of mine in South Africa had some in his collection and he shared some seeds 😁
Great video 👍
Thank you!
Great video I love the pygmy drosera I've started to grow them and the book savage garden is great thanks for recommending it
Thank you! They’re great plants. And the book helps in growing them even more 😁 goodluck
Lol, the birds at the background are looking for your pots
Exactly!!😭
I'm wondering how you could grow tuberous drosera in America. I've been wanting to grow tuberous drosera but I don't know how because there is not much info on the internet.
Grow them like you would any tuberous drosera. Growth in winter and dormancy in summer. I’ll do a video on it for you!
Thank you!
Of course!
What do you do with these plants during the winter not many insects for them to catch
Some go dormant, some don’t. Those that don’t continue to grow. They don’t need a lot of insects to grow. Generally one per month is enough

Lol thank you! Best place for lighting and quieter than outside. Neighbours birds and construction. Lol😂😂
Awesome I'm GaGa for the South African variety Sundews 😉 gotta share my Nidiformis with you she ladle spoon shape & growing up right 💚💚😍💚💚
Aw I’d love to see it! They’re beautiful plants
Heya just came back from a trek. I saw a type of drosera that completely looks like shower heads, long stem with literally shower head shape at the end with the tentacles with the dews on end like 💦 have an idea what they are?
I think it is one of the erect type in number 8 2nd one
Drosera menziesii? 🤔 are you in WA?
My cape sundew is not really moving when i place a bug on it, any idea why?
Lack of energy from not enough sunlight, and not enough stimulation and maybe cold weather. If they haven’t moved after 4 days then it’s an issue
@@TheFlytrapGarden Dang probably the cold, its litteraly in a terranium that weighs like 5000 pounds
Maybe lol that’s why I don’t recommend terrariums amongst other reasons. Can’t move them 😂😂
@@TheFlytrapGarden Oof each time i move it the precious rainwater from the tray thing spills ;-; i gues ill have to put litteraly every single bucket out when it rains D;
Do it! Put as many buckets as you can out. That’s what I used to do 😂
Sir I have drosera tokaiensis seeds , can I keep them in full sun when they germinate
And also I am going to buy drosera burmannii seeds can I keep them in full sun
I would add Paradoxa to the wooly ones. I own it and it's really something different from the others i own. (Capensis Alba, Capensis and Alice)
That’s very different lol
These plants would make nice pets
They definitely do
You have solve the insect problem of your garden
What type of Sundew would you recommend as a beginner for someone in California?
Drosera capensis
@@TheFlytrapGarden Thank you
1:57👍
dews are the best
They’re awesome!

Yea probably misspoke 😊 I don’t remember
Replace all grass with these plants to rid of flies and mosquitoes
Exactly!
11:32 Drosera petiolaris isnt tuberous
Yes I meant to say peltata 😊 I had so many names in my head, I got confused. Same happened with Lunata and Lanata😅sorry about that
@@TheFlytrapGarden NP
I've got alba cepensis and tropical Venus fly trap
The difficulty of keeping a plant can be misleading since it depends on conditions so much. For me, Drosera prolifera was much more reliable than adelae so much so that I'd call prolifera very easy and adelae difficult.
Wow I haven’t heard of many people finding prolifera easy, where do you stay
It did really well for me in East and North windowsills(in North America). It grew like a less picky adelae, just had to keep it on the humid side and the flowers made pups like crazy. I will say it gives up if you let the media dry out completely, unlike a lot of the South African species.
Don't like the annual species. Prefer the perennials so I can enjoy them each year.
Should show some of your plants instead of pics :)
Lol I wish! All my plants are currently seedlings. I can’t wait for them to get big enough for me to actually take videos as you suggest
