- Species: Drosera
- Drosera Finlaysoniana is a carnivorous plant from the Drosera genus
- This particular plant is labeled under the 'Indica complex' umbrella, and will grow as an annual plant if left to flower
- Drosera indica is found in Africa, Australia, India, southeast Asia and Japan
- Plants grow green leaves, covered in small tentacles with white mucus-like droplets on each tentacle. Small insects easily get stuck to a leaf, trapped and ready for digestion
- Currently around 5-10cm tall, plants for sale will be staked as they can grow up to 30cm when mature
- In their habitat, Drosera Finlaysoniana is considered an annual - thus leaving your plant in cultivation to flower may be fatal
- As with other sundews, flowering also requires a lot of energy thus cutting flower stalks when they emerge will keep your plant dewy and extend it's lifetime
- These plants can grow up to 30cm tall and staking while small will keep the dewy tentacles off the soil - hanging baskets with only a few drainage holes will be good too
Pssst... have you seen these?
