Drosera trinervia is native to South Africa. It grows during the cool, wet winter months before dying back to its fleshy roots when the hot, dry summer arrives. This form of D. trinervia produces large all-white flowers.

Really nice pauciflora with 2 plants! I haven’t grown this species for more than 20 years. Very excited to have a chance to grow them again. When they bloom the flowers are fantastic!
