Drosera Capillaris (Costa Rica) • Seed grown • Pink flowered sundew

Description

• Species: Drosera
• Drosera Capillaris, the pink or spathulate-leaved sundew (not to be confused with Drosera spatulata), is a small carnivorous plant of the family Droseraceae in the genus Drosera
• This particular plant is a very unique, rare form of Drosera capillaris - originating from Costa Rica
• Leaves acquire deep red colouration in bright light and are covered in small tentacles with tiny droplets of mucilage on each one. When an insect becomes stuck to a leaf, the leaf slowly curls around the trapped insect and digests it
• Produces pink flowers

Care

• Flowering requires a lot of energy and might cause your plant to lose it's dew
• Cut flower stalks when they emerge for a healthier, dewy plant

• Because Cultivo is a boutique-style store, most of our collector’s plants are one-of-a-kind “exact plant pictured” or limited seasonal releases. That means once they’re sold, they’re gone - so standard restock notifications aren’t practical here
• A few seasonal plants or variants of small-batch releases may return in the future. If that happens, we’ll update the original listing with new photos and details
