Drosera adelae Potted

$ 11.99

We have run out of stock for this item.

This is the ideal plant for a windowsill that doesn't get quite enough light for other carnivorous plant.  This sundew comes from shaded, mossy stream-sides in Queensland, Australia.  If grown in bright light, the plants are smaller and bronzy.  Plants in low light are green and can grow up to 5 inches across!  This is a true tropical species and prefers temps in the 70-90's with high humidity.  A bell jar or cloche can help keep humidity high.  Mature plants have striking little red star-shaped flowers. It forms clumps from the roots quickly.  Great for the terrarium too!

Care Instructions
Sun: Grow on a sunny windowsill or in a greenhouse or in a terrarium
Water: Always sitting in at least two inches of distilled or purified water
Temperature: 50 degrees - 90 degrees, prefers high humidity
Dormancy: Does not require a dormancy

The plant came small but is growing. I am sure it will be full size in no time as all my other CC purchases are. I did expect it to be green, as in the picture, but it is predominantly red.

Quality plants arrived safely

I placed an order for a couple of specimens of Cephalotus and a Drosera adelae. The specimens were very nice sized quality plants. I recommend this company as a reliable source for your carnivorous plants!

Turning brown already

Arrived green, and I've followed care instructions and now it's brown. It's getting plenty of sun and rain water.
