Drosera spatulata (a.k.a. the Spatula Sundew) covers a wide habitat range. This variety was originally collected from the Hong Kong region of China. The leaves of Drosera spatulata ‘Hong Kong’ are covered with glands that secrete sticky “dew” and enzymes to catch and digest prey.

I was super excited to see that I received not 1 plant but 5 individual healthy plants. They went through a bit of shock after the potting. One of them seemed to decline to the point I thought it was going to die, but I decided to leave it and let it do its thing. To my surprise, after another week, it fully bounced back, and with that, all 5 plants were super healthy and doing really well. The first image is the day I received them, and the second image is 1 month later.

I LOVED my plants. I put them all together in a ceramic bowl with moss. They were very healthy and so much fun to put together.

Shipped bare root and was even bigger that depicted. All the plants in my order were nice size and well packaged. I was worried because the shipment was delayed by 3 days, but everything arrived perfectly and looked very healthy.
