Drosera aliciae is a sub-tropical rosette sundew native to South Africa. It is easy to care for and recommended for beginners. D. aliciae can turn bright orange/red if given strong light but may become more green in dimmer conditions or if fed frequently. It has a habit of clumping and can form beautiful mounds of dewy plants.

My drosera aliciae arrived so well packed and in excellent condition! She’s beautiful! I found the instructions very helpful as to how to acclimate it and within 24hrs it had dew on the leaves. She’s doing wonderfully after a week. I will buy again from your store.
