Drosera binata variations

[abdalav]

Hi!

I've read in Savage Garden that there's a Drosera binata variety known as Dichotoma T-Form. For me, it just looks like the regular binata variety.

How do we differentiate from one another?

Best wishes

D. binata, dichotoma, multifida etc. are all different species in the binata complex, distinct in leaf lamina thickness, coloration, petiole structure and flowers. If it's actually D. dichotoma the plant will tend toward a more yellow-green color in the leaves and stockier petioles; I don't believe the "T-form dichotoma" is dichotoma, but another form of D. binata.
