Since we started cultivating _Drosera_ in vitro and (after acclimatization)
in the glasshouse we noticed that all of the 'round-leaved' species like
the rotundifolia, hilaris, dielsiana etc. often starded to set flowers
in vitro, but always in the glasshouse, despite of the actual season of
the year. Only the _D. capensis_ failed to flower until now: today I
checked the _D._ in the glasshouse and was VERY pleased to find the
_capensis_ plants starting to set flowers!
Here's my question to you experts: is it possible to induce flowering of
the _D.capensis_ also outside spring or is this species definitively
fixed to a defined season of the year (i.e. spring)?
Would be great if you can share your experience you possibly have
with the thing.
Thnxs, Chris.
