FORKED SUNDEWS (DROSERA BINATA)
Welcome to #cpclubthursday
Thursday AUGUST the 8th, 2024
🌟OVER 155 MEMBERS !🌟
FEATURE: Forked Sundews
Lots of people have heard of the CPs called sundews but for most people it means Cape Sundews (a great beginner CP!). But some sundews like a good fork ! 🍴
I’ll let Dr Wikipedia provide an introduction:
“Drosera binata, commonly known as the forked sundew or fork-leaved sundew. It is a large, perennial sundew native to Australia and New Zealand. The specific epithet is Latin for "having pairs" - a reference to the leaves, which are dichotomously divided or forked.”
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drosera_binata
So does any #cpclubthursday member have a forked sundew or planning to get one?
Add any interesting Carnivorous Plant (CP) facts, photos, or anything CP-related for this week.
Or ask a question of our members related to CPs
Join the CP just by clicking the link #cpclubthursday and clicking join. That is all it takes! Too easy! Shall we make it to 160 members ?
There is already a wealth of CP so why not just join our growing CP community at #cpclubthursday!
Happy Chompys 😊🪰🦟🚫

I didn’t plan to have a forked sundew, it turned up growing in one of my VFT pots and I just reported it and it has taken off (even have one in my CP ultimate terrarium) but I find them intriguing as I wonder why they are shaped the way they are? What’s the benefit ?
I am growing some more from seeds (I hope )
Evelyn, how is your foray into CPs going so far ?

@Seymour my plants are hanging in there. The ones with the most “shock adjustments” are the vft and the pitcher plant. The Sarracenia & others have actually already perked up a good bid I believe. Thanks for asking. Up this early am with flood warnings around my area from hurricane Debbie in my area. 🫣
@SweetAzurebluet Harriet, this is the place you want to be to learn about Cape Sundews and other #carnivorousplants.
@HeraMonstera I've only ever won the bonus plant lottery with California Carnivores. Majority of the plants I recieve from there come with bonus plants! Of course, not all plants will have them. There's a video on their yt channel that helps you identify what hitchhiking plants are in your pots, lol! I've mainly gotten Drosera Binata and Drosera Capensis as bonuses :) Hopefully sometime soon you'll get some bonus plants ! 😁
@PleaseLeaf Wow. Do, they are great examples of forked sundews you have ! Thanks for sharing 🤩👍🤗😀🙏
@CourtlyKingfern Hey Evelyn they all look very healthy and happy so you are a natural at CPs by the looks of things! Hope they bring lots of joy and fun for the family 😀👍🤩🥰
