Drosera tracyi
$24.95
See below for a full description.
This eye-catching plant grows up to 3 inches tall and 3 inches wide. Its uniform shape makes it look like a tiny tree. The only difference is that this little tree sparkles in sunlight! In the wild, this sundew is found in parts of boggy areas that are often flooded with one or two inches of water. When cultivated, keep the water level quite high, about three-quarters of the way up the pot. In winter, the leaves die back, and the plant forms a resting bud at soil level. Growth will start again in mid-spring.

Best Nursery
I ordered from a handful of popular nurseries, all around the same time with about the same budget. This nursery not only processed and shipped my order the fastest, but also sent some of the biggest and healthiest looking plants. 5/5 Highly recommend.

Beautiful plant, but very tiny and doesn’t appear to have survived heavy rain in a new bog garden.

Drosera Intermedia - Fruit flies beware!
I live in Zone 6a and currently have my sundew, along with my fly traps and sarracenia under 12-13 hour grow lights, in preparation for June 1st when they will be put outside for the season. The d.intermedia is creating sparkling dew beyond my expectations and has already caught four fruit flies. I also was fortunate to have a smaller 'hitchhiker' d.intermedia attached to a dormant Venus Flytrap I received back in January. That sundew is also growing exceptionally and has caught at least three fruit flies as well. I'm very excited to watch their progression this summer!
