Drosera capensis ‘Bainskloof’ is a Cape Sundew originally collected from Bainskloof Pass in South Africa. It doesn’t grow as large as some other forms of D. capensis, but forms a stem over time with compact growth at the top. Older leaves can turn a lovely pinkish color under strong light, especially if the plant hasn’t been fed in awhile.

*This plant ships bare root*

    Healthy little thing, as described, with comically long roots for a plant not yet very large.

  2. Denise Segor (verified owner)

    The plants arrived healthy and have acclimated well as per the directions. The packaging and hot pack made for a safe arrival. Thank you!

    I’ve ordered Droseras from plant nurseries before, but the Drosera that I received from Curious Plant was packaged perfectly. Would definitely recommend.
