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.

Plants were packaged beautifully, came lightning fast and had a certificate stating that the facility’s stock was pest free. All the plants that I ordered were so much bugger than I’d expected and I had to rethink my potting choices. This was an excellent first purchase experience! Can’t wait to place my carnivores outdoors this summer and watch them thrive!!! I look forward to ordering more plants from this company in the future.

I ordered 3 of the same plants ( Drosera Alicia’s). They arrived quickly and all in good shape. I reviewed video on potting and honestly felt that it was not quite as easy as video looks, but I’m sure that’s because it was first time for me. I also bought pots a little too big so didn’t have enough soil ( I should have bought a little extra). I am still acclimating them per instructions and all 3 seem to be doing well. Definitely worth the purchase and would buy from here again.
