I currently grow the following species of pygmey drosera: D. Callistos,
D. Pygmaea, D. Australis var. occidentalis.

Can anyone tell me how to induce gemmaefication in these species?
Currently they are growing in a 50/50 peat-silica sand medium outside
with partial sun and nightime lows of 50f. How should I overwinter these
drosera?

This is the first season I have grown this genus. Any feedback is
greatly appreciated!

Picking D. Binata out of my drainpipes,
