          Dear Fernando,
          
          Could you describe the weird growth cycle of D.paradoxa and
          how it differs from D.petiolaris? The last time I
          corresponded with Allen on this he mentioned he had to study
          it some more in habitat to gain insight into its growth
          habit before he could publish it. Plants which I have kept
          warm and under artificial light all year round have
          continued to grow. Those which I left in my cool houses this
          autumn have gone into a state of dormancy forming a 'hairy
          bud' reminiscent of some of the dormant pygmy Drosera.I am
          hoping that this dormancy period will cause them to flower
          in the next growing season.
          
          Kind regards
          
          Loyd
