Dear Randy,

Larger than which S Af species?

Does it have a winter bud (hibernaculum)?

Both names do not tell me much. The ICPS has not received either name
for registration yet.

The names that are acceptable for _Drosera_ are ' California Sunset '
(the only established epithet so far), Caprice, Marston Dragon,
Nagamoto, and Watari. "Plains Form", mentioned by Slack, is only
acceptable with reservation because the ICNCP (Art.17.15) precludes
the usage of expressions like "form" or "variety" in cultivar
epithets. Perhaps your "PLANEHORN" is this "Plains Form" of _D.
aliciae_ with some orthographical permutations.

Kind regards
Jan
