Drosera regia, also known as the King Sundew, is an incredible species. It grows long sword-shaped leaves that can wrap multiple times around prey, surrounding it with dew secreting tentacles that are equally impressive in size. Originating from a single valley in South Africa, it is one of the most vulnerable Drosera species in the wild with only a few hundred individuals left in one small colony.

Came in so nice I ordered twice, arrived in wonderful condition still had dew after fed ex shipping, mine had a couple of growth points so it feels like I got two plants. Hopefully it won’t die on me as many have reported it can be difficult to cultivate

I love it!! It arrived looking so much better than I expected, and it was a big plant. It even still had all of its dew. One of the most worthwhile plant purchases online I’ve had so far.
