- Species: Drosera
- Drosera Coccicaulis is another beautiful plant in the natalensis/dielsiana/
venusta complex - They produce pink flowers, and very similar to drosera venusta, its rounded leaves and semi-erect growing habit makes it very attractive
- 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
- These are vigorous and easy-growing seed-grown sundews and prefer slightly cooler temperatures during the hot summer months
- Excellent candidate for terrarium or window-sill growing and makes a great plant for the beginner to expert sundew enthusiast alike
- Similar to Cape Sundews, Drosera Coccicaulis prefers slightly cooler temperatures especially during the hot summer months (December / January)
- 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

A beautiful little plant, was asked when people saw it if that was really dew on the leaves! Grows quickly, has a pretty colour, and a great addition to any collection!
