HI list :) 
A friend just sent me a photocopy of a paper describing several 
African Drosera, complete with line drawings and descriptions (in 
French, unfortunately for me).  I'd seen literature and drawings of 
these plants years ago but, despite a message or 2 to the list in the 
past, havent heard from anyone growing any of these plants.  I doubt 
anyones actually got the TRUE species listed below, but if you do, 
please contact me as I am EXTREMELY interested in growing any of them:
Drosera humbertii
Drosera katangensis
Drosera bequaertii
Drosera affinis
Drosera elongata
I was also wondering if any of these species had been found to be 
synonyms for other plants.  All except humbertii bear a slight 
resemblance to D.madagascariensis which, based on 2 types Ive got, is 
somewhat variable... sp.Botswana, anybody?  :)
Thoughts?  Anyone?  Anyone?
