The pet store I work at sometimes gets in shipments of CPs and since my kitten decided my Drosera spatulata “Tamlin” was a snack, and thus decimated the pot, I decided to get some replacements!

Its unmarked, but clearly a spatulata (or a variant of it). It came with a few flower stalks, one of which had fasciated most likely due to stress, that I cut off due to them being all bent up and looking the worse for wear. I put the whole clump of them into the pot to minimize stress.
