Thanks for that. Playing with a macro and a couple of flashes. They are great to take

There is no way to tell which species of Drosera this is without flowers, or which of Drosera auriculata or Drosera peltata without a good photo showing the outside of the sepals (which cup the flower).

Thanks for this, I will wait and get some photos of this when they appear. Great feed back

I found a large colony of these today at my local nature reserve! They are so cool. Will be reporting to CNM soon...
