I wish there was a book available entitled "Layman's Guide to Drosera Identification" with glossy photos and circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back explaining what each one was. I'd certainly buy it.

Good growing,
Mike

Thanks Lethal _traps. It doesn't look anything like my other Drosera natalensis. So maybe it's D dielsiana.. But are they the same? I didn't ever plant any D.dielsiana. I love sundews but they drive me crazy. The reason I am trying to identify it is because it's flowering. I guess it will be another NOID... :lol: I have a few of that species.

T5 lighting? Judging from the size and leaf shape, it could be a Dielsiana. I have one from California Carnivores, but my coloring is different because it's grown outside.

Probably D.natalensis. because I did plant lots of seeds of that species. The color in the photo isn't even close to what it really looks like. It is a pink like raspberry color, and it is growing outside in the greenhouse. That's why I am confused because the other
D. natalensis in the labeled pot are green.
Thank everyone.. :D

No thanks for me :( Jk lol

Mine turned that color when I moved it under my brighter t5. It wasn't the plant actually turning red from bright light, but it was a temporary red in response to the stress I guess.
