Hello... Can you please help me confirm 2 id's and id the third Drosera for me?

Drosera capensis???

Drosera spatulata? (That is what the label said)

Complete guess but i think this is possibly Drosera tokaiensis

Yes i know that the D. Spatulata and the D. tokaiensis (i think) is in a very bad condition, but i only got it last week so it is still in the recovery stages...

1st one def. Capensis.
2nd, not really sure about Spat, my reasoning would be the hairiness of the plant
3rd, it could be tokiaensis, but hybrids are hard to come by. When it dews and perks up a little repost a pic, probably get a better answer.

Looking for any drosera capensis via seed, pm me!
I'm interested in any sundews.

2nd one looks sort of like madagascarensis. You also have a bladderwort in that pot lol

Tokaiensis is not hard to come by at all.
Many spatulata are actually tokaiensis.
Again, we will need better conditions to tell the last two plants, as many of the rosetted sundews are quite difficult to tell apart.

Thank you.

I went back to the nursery and asked about the last plant, they talked to their supplier and it is a Drosera aliciae according to the supplier.

Further i got myself a Drosera binata... Which is quite cool...

That's definitely not an Aliciae.

Otherwise known as Utricularia, another carnivorous plant. They love having wet soil and will flower when there is more light. There's over 200 species so its almost impossible to tell which one it is without seeing a flower.

Yes, the roots and traps grow under the ground, but the leaves are above ground.
It's no harm to your Drosera at all
