Drosera x Pulchella f. pink flower - 10 Fresh gemmae
Our Seeds
Gemmae are modified leaves only found on pygmy drosera and are generally only available during the autumn and winter months
These modified leaves act as a live seed or tiny seedling and usually germinates much quicker than ordinary carnivorous plant seeds
Fresh gemmae are packed in between wet paper towels to stay moist during shipping
As with our other seed orders gemmae are shipped in a padded envelope for protection
Sowing Guide
Sow gemmae as soon as it arrives as they do not store well
Spread gemmae on fresh carnivorous plant soil or pre-moistened long fiber sphagnum moss and use a fine mist spray with clean water to ensure proper contact with the soil
Choose gemmae placement carefully as pygmy drosera have very fragile roots and are not fond of root disturbance and repotting
Fill a tray with approximately 0.5-1 cm reverse osmosis- or distilled water to keep the soil moist, and grow in a protected area with a couple of hours morning sun or bright artificial light
Pygmy drosera gemmae usually germinates within 2-4 weeks if conditions are favourable
Follow the guidelines in our general sowing instructionsif you are new to carnivorous plants from seed
