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.

Looked good
This guy looked good for the first few days, but ultimately has shriveled up and turned brown completely. HOWEVER, this is totally due to the Arizona heat and ordering in summer wasn't my best decision... I'm sure it was due to the stress of being shipped here. It's totally not anyone's fault, but I'm hoping with a little luck I can bring him back again. I will HAPPILY order from you guys in the future! Really great carnivores

Extremely healthy, and quickly adjusted.
This Dundee was much hardier then other CP's from other grow centers or home depot, or nurseries. It took little time for it to adjust to the dry and intense summer heat of the sun. I recommend putting it in an area the is inaccessible to pest like raccoons or squirrels as they one like to rip and bury nuts in the soil, while the other licks and bites off the entire crown of the plant.

Gnat eaters
I’ve been looking for some droseras for a while they are such an interesting looking plant, and they are really good at getting the gnats that come along with my indoor plants

A beautiful plant.
I have not had much success with sundews in the past but I decided to try again with this one and now it is one of my favorite plants. The plant came in great condition. Then we had a cold snap- I had to cover it and it got a little frost nipped. I emailed the folks at Sarracenia Northwest and they were very helpful, my little plant pulled through and now is returned to normal and catching bugs.
