Self Pollinating Sundew


Question
I was wondering if you had a list of sundews that self pollinate, is stead of asking about particular plants, but specifically I am wondering about...


Byblis liniflora
D. filiformis 'Florida Giant'
D. filiformis x intermedia - Hybrida
D. rotundifolia
D. tracyi
D. regia
Alos, Cephs I can find any info whether or not they do

Thanks
I buy my plants almost solely from you guys, and am ALWAYS satisfied

Answer
Hi Michael,

Byblis liniflora - yes

D. filiformis "Florida Giant" - May need cross pollination.  Ours don't set seed well, yet a customer of ours who has some in a bog garden gets good seed set.

D. x "hybrida" - Sterile.  Cannot produce seeds.

D. rotundifolia - yes

D. trayci - yes

D. regia - Needs cross pollination.

Cephalotus - Can self-pollinate, but does much better with cross-pollination.


Good Growing!
