Drosera x obovata is a hybrid between Drosera rotundifolia and Drosera anglica. It occurs in the wild where both parents are present and the right conditions are over lapping. This wild form is sterile, However there is another option. Drosera 'Ivan's Paddle' is a man made Drosera x obovata hybrid and it’s self fertile!
