I was hoping to find this nice variety of D. capensis or any other reddish colored non-temperate sundew. Can't seem to find it in stock anywhere. I have a few CPs I have available for trade.

I have a few common VTF varities for trade (Pink Venus, Fang, and Czech Giant) which have recently flowered but are just about recovered. I have some P. Moranensis babies. I also have a ton of typical D. capensis.

All i have is a d. binata fork leafed. I recently got it with one of my orders.

EDIT: Check California Carnivores they have quit a selection of D. capensis species.
Here is the link

I would contact the other Eric (Dionae). He seems to have a lot of Capensis "red" seedlings.

He is an awesome trader too, I cannot recommend him enough and in all of my trades with him he has been very generous.

-Well actually I was there, and that's how I know the dinosaurs rode off into space.
-You weren't there!

wish I would of seen this earlier. The commissary on base here seems to specialize in D. Capensis Red (Killing them that is) I just recently rehabilitated one and gave it away this morning to one of my Korean Coworkers that loves CPs as well.

Hi Swat! Is that actually a red variety? I'm not doubting you but it does look very similar to my typical.

Thanks for the recommendation, Eric.

Yeah, the D. capensis I'm looking for is like the one jrmc posted. There it's called D. capensis 'narrow red leaf' but I haven't seen a consistent name for it. I would order from California Carnivores but that price is kind of steep.

I'd also consider trading for any unusual or largish sundew that doesn't require a dormancy period.
