About 2 months ago I set up this pot as a mini-bog. It is only for CPs with dew, and only seeds can go into it. I have sown 15+ species of CP seeds in there so far, including Drosera, Pinguicula, and Byblis. As you can see there is a lot of green starting to show. I can't wait for it to all fill in.

There are about 6-7 species up and growing now. Some won’t sprout until spring after a natural stratification.

Looking great! I love how that Drosera finlaysoniana (I believe) is just towering over all the other species

Yeah I like them too. And yes they are finlaysoniana. I’m just surprised they are still growing. They have gone through a couple of freezes, some snow, and really cold days yet they are about to open up flowers in a couple of days. They are a tropical species but they seem to be doing just fine in the cold for me.
