The title says it all, I'm looking to get into subtropical dews and i would like to start out with some easier ones, especially rosetted varieties. If you have any for sale or trade please PM me!

wow, i have 7 Drosera Dielsiana growing it matches you description perfectly. They are subtropical, rosette, easy to grow since they send down a tap root letting them get water from lower down in the plant pot, I have let the top dirt get crusty dry and they still look healthy. I currently have leaf cuttings growing and some seeds but i dont want to trade my mature plants since they have taken me almost 1 year to grow.

Though it isn't rosetted, D. Capensis is the final word in easy and is available through most every cp store. I grow it and have to say you can't go wrong with it!

D. Alicea is the easiest Rosseted Drosera that i've grown, with Spatulata close behind. (Tho' my Spatty is growing underground.... a long story)
