Love It!!
I ordered this in May, I now have 4 plants. It recently had a big bloom on it which I cut and replanted hoping to have another. This sundew came in great condition and is continuing to thrive.
This is a natural hybrid of Drosera filiformis and D. intermedia. One word about this hybrid - vigorous! It takes the summer heat, grows fast and works hard in capturing insects. You will definitely enjoy watching beads of nectar glisten in sunlight as it does its job in your garden. You will almost swear the nectar drips off of this plant. You are bound to have fun with this plant!

Sundew
The plants arrived promptly, actually earlier than tracking expected so they spent a day and a half in my mailbox. Despite the transit, they looked healthy when I opened them up and had plenty of moisture still. The provided information was detailed and helpful in caring for them. Thank You

So far, so good!
The hybrid looks good so far. There are a few buds forming at the base of the plant and look to sprout soon. Care has been very easy so far. Seems very hardy; lots of unobstructed sunlight and frequent water is what I'm providing and it seems happy.

tiny plant
A little surprised at its size but with warmer weather allowing me to put it outdoors it's doing well on the porch. The tiny arms that were barely visible upon arrival are standing up tall and I can see the dew forming.
