hello all,

here are two pictures of Genlisea filiformis (if I'm right) from my country, French Guyana.

the plant colony grow in a savanna, covered with grass, 1m tall. there are some Clusia sp. also around.
the savana is close to the single road which pass along the coast of FR.Guyana. it's situated 230 Km from Cayenne, the city where I live.

the colony of plants is rather big...it's situated in the lowest parts of the savanna, there where the ground is the most moisturized. the plants looked very healthy, there were many in flowers. I didn't found any seed capsule.

I will show you two pictures only, all the others I made are bad. my camera broke down at that moment, no chance...

here is a picture of the colony :


and here is one of the flower :


this area of Fr. Guyana experience bush-fires every year, during the dry season :


I hope you'll enjoy these few pictures

Beauty genlisea Patrice.

I saw a drosera in first picture.

Thanks for sharing.

Bonjour Patrice!

Thank you for posting these pics, this is in fact G.filiformis, not G.pygmaea. Notice that the tip of the spur is fat and rounded (obtuse), where's in G.pygmaea it's pointed (acute).

Congrats,
Fernando

Me too! Beautiful Genlisea! Congrats!
