I remember reading from a source that Hummers Giant and German giants are about the same size, the only main difference is that the German giant grows significantly slower and forms clumps readily. I do often hear that the German giant is referred to as the "true giant" though.
And to answer your other question from the other post, I'm pretty sure that all cephalotus require dormancy. They usually don't have that long of a dormancy though, I know it's significantly shorter than most CP's. And I think that it's okay to skip dormancy every other year if you really wanted to, but I'm not 100% sure on that.
Good Growing!

Hello, Im no expert but, I have seen CP's in the southeast of Australia affected by the winter rains as well as the uniformly low temperatures, and I wonder whether this may also play some role in dormancy as it does in the dormancy and or emergence of many Drosera in the wild. I dont know how relevant this may be to cultivation but the southern tip of WA where Cephalotus comes from has a climate more like the southeast. The rest of the state, where rainbow sundews come from, is very different.
