Drosera spatulata
Arrived healthy and well. Very nice plant. However, this is the only one of my sundews that is not growing well. Seems to be shriveling up, despite good light and proper watering.
This species is a demure plant. When fully grown, it is just under 2 inches in diameter, but it can reproduce itself by sending out shoots, producing a mound of multiple plants with spoon-shaped leaves. Give it ample sunlight in a sunny windowsill. With the right care, your plant will produce lovely pink flowers for you. It's an excellent plant for the first-time grower.
Type of Plant: Tropical plant for windowsill growing.
Size: 2 inches across when mature.
Sunlight: Partial sun.
Water: Low-mineral water (50 ppm or less).
