Hey all,
I unboxed my Dionaea m. Ginormous from CalCarn to find a tiny sundew next to the flytrap. For reference, the flytrap diameter is about the same as a quarter’s. Could you guys identify it? I’m thinking D. Aliciae, but it could by something else. Thanks!

I’m glad it’s not a capensis and possibly and species I don’t have! I only started growing CP’s a year or two ago, but I have expanded my collection quite a bit.

I agree with Shadow, it is too early to tell.
However, heres a couple common species that it could be:
Spatulata
capillaris
and to a lesser extent:
aliciae
venusta
natalensis

The hitchhiker has gotten considerably bigger, but I still cannot positively ID it. Any ideas on what species it is?

It’s not under any type of grow lights. I’ve just been growing it outside in full sun and has done pretty well. :D

I hope mine takes off like that. It had been under lights for close to a year. I just acclimated it outside a few weeks ago. Slowly trying to get everything out of greenhouse to the outdoors.
