You know, my byblis survived transplanting, about 40% though, but they were the big ones, so good that I have the healthy ones alive!

One rather large B. liniflora  B. liniflora by hawken.carlton, on Flickr And it's begun its flowering streak. At least 2 others are following  B. liniflora by hawken.carlton, on Flickr The B. rorida have slowly continued growing up, but the leaves aren't getting any longer. I'll have to see if that's normal... Meanwhile, the B. guehoi are gaining size rapidly  B. guehoi by hawken.carlton, on Flickr |

Nice liniflora! Mine has gotten so heavy that it is not erect but scrambling now.

Have a new pic of the guehoi too, will be posting it later. They're over 6" now. The rorida on the other hand are still sluggish...

I'd love to hear if you end up getting seed from these guys. I have plenty of liniflora seed, but only one rorida seed germinated, so it is unlikely that I'll get seed from that one.

My largest B. rorida decided to try and make a flower. Unfortunately, this is as far as it got before the stupid mouse we had chewed off the bud.....  B. rorida Lake Campion by hawken.carlton, on Flickr Note, I said the mouse we "had." He is no longer extant  |

I was told that the pot I had these guys in wasn't big enough. Well, both the bigger B. guehoi are preparing to flower, so it must be okay.....  B. guehoi Kimberleys by hawken.carlton, on Flickr |

A couple liniflora flowers  B. liniflora by hawken.carlton, on Flickr And: the first flower from B. guehoi!  B. guehoi Kimberleys by hawken.carlton, on Flickr  B. guehoi Kimberleys by hawken.carlton, on Flickr As there are no other guehoi plants flowering yet, I have crossed this flower with two of the liniflora flowers, and done the same in reverse. Hopefully they succeed. More flowers are arising from this same plant as well, hopefully the second big guy will follow suit. |

Those Byblis are looking amazing! It's really exciting to see the flowers on them.

Seeds were achieved from the liniflora x guehoi side of the cross, nothing from the reverse. Hopefully its actually the cross and not some odd accidental self-pollinating, but... Meanwhile, both of the biggest guehoi are coming into flower, so I may finally get species seed! And, a couple flowers from the biggest plant:  B. guehoi Kimberleys by hawken.carlton, on Flickr |

The two big guehoi flowered, and seeds are forming on the first one. The other did not take, as the tip had issues, however it is now branching. The first clone is on the right, new one is on the left; interestingly the newer flowering clone has fewer ruffles on the petals.  B. guehoi Kimberleys by Hawken Carlton, on Flickr |
