Updated: May 1, 2025

Macfarlane has discovered a natural hybrid between two species of sundew in the swamps near Atco, N.J. The parents, D. intermedia and D. filiformis, were growing abundantly all around, but of the hybrid only a group of eleven plants was found. A detailed comparison of the hybrid with its parents demonstrated a minute blending of the anatomical peculiarities of the parental species.
