Byblis 'Goliath' in 2009.

[Brian Barnes]

Hello Friends,

Here's a few shots of my Byblis 'Goliath' cultivar, taken in early morning. Despite the recent freeze here in Florida, all is alive and well. I've been working on propagation and have hundreds of seedlings growing inside in grow chambers with lights.
I should have many, many plants by the time Spring arrives!

Please forgive the semi- poor lighting and quality of the photos. It's been quite windy and cloudy outdoors lately... but they still came out half decent.

Note the pulvinus clearly present in Byblis 'Goliath';


A tray of clones in propagation; Please excuse the sticks used as trellises, as I ran out of wooden dowels! ;D


And here's a few decent flower shots in shade and sun;

Brian,

Just curious, what species is this?

[Brian Barnes]

Hey T,

They're supposedly a form of Byblis filifolia, but tend to be a bit different because of the pulvinic trait, which is not documented in the species description. Also, they get huge!

Happy Growing,

Brian.
