<em> Byblis liniflora subsp. occidentalis </em> from Kununurra, 
Western Australia.
Two plants are pictured here next to a <em> Byblis gigantea </em>
which is actually the smaller plant on the right.  These plants 
are about seven months old and eventually reached nearly 3 feet 
tall.  The flowers are nearly as large as those on 
<em> B. gigantea </em>
and are distinctly yellow (or occassionally) white on the 
backside.  This plant enjoys slightly dryer soil conditions than 
<em> Byblis liniflora "TYPE" </em>.

TEXT:{
<em> Byblis liniflora </em> from "Darwin", Northern Territory.
This is a very small variety of Byblis liniflora with leaves 
barely 5cm long.  In full sun, the plant becomes a very deep red 
color.  It usually only has one flower open at a time.  It enjoys 
wet feet in sand/peat mixture and FULL SUN, unlike the typical
<em> Byblis liniflora</em>.  The seeds are also much larger than other
<em> Byblis liniflora </em> varieties.  This form is not presently
classified as a unique subspecies.

TEXT:{
<em> Byblis gigantea </em> TYPE from seed collected just south of 
Perth, Western Australia.
Plant is seen here about 7 months old in early summer growth.
Temperature about 75-90 degrees day, 65-70 night.  Growing in 
sand/perlite/peat which is dry at surface but moist below (watered 
from tray but not standing in water.)
This form is generally smaller than the northern forms from 
"Cataby" and "Eneabba" and with smaller flowers.  It's glands are, 
however, more closely spaced.
