Hi Greg,
As you may be aware, I am the Guru of sundew hybridization:-) I tried
crossing D. indica with D. adelae and got no results. Some taxonomist
place these two sundews in the same section, Arachnopus. My test
indicates these are not so closely related. A friend of mine cross
pollinated D. prolifera with adelae and did get seed but was unable to
germinate them. BTW, I have a suspicion that if these later two were
hybridized, D. schizandra might be the result.
