Drosera tracyi
$24.95
While this plant can get to impressive size, leaves growing 12-16 inches that will wrap around captured insects, it can be a bit of an enigma for some growers. The secret is growing it like a mountainous species - lots of sun but mild temperatures. A nighttime drop below 65°F is essential for optimal growth. Best for the experienced grower.
