Drosera schizandra is a sundew species native to Queensland, Australia. It is known as one of the “Three Sisters of Queensland” along with Drosera prolifera and Drosera adelae. D. schizandra prefers moderate to cool temperatures, high humidity, and lower light making it a good candidate for shaded or low-light terrariums.
