Howdy everyone! So, after being in a rabbit-hole of carnivorous plant videos on Youtube, I saw a video featuring a drosera admirabilis. I totally fell in love with its look, particularly how it stacks in height, or "float". If you have one/any, I'd be willing to buy

Howdy Sundeewz! I actually saw that one too, but the "Bains Kloof" in the name made me unsure if it is the same plant I saw (or some hybrid). I am really just fascinated by the one that appears to grow in a tall column. But if it's the same thing, hey!

The moss tries to overgrow the plants but they keep a little ahead of it.
I was messing in this pot, digging up plants for the auction, but you can see a little column action under the plant on the right.
And I just noticed today, a flower scape has appeared.
