Description
Discover Drosera aliciae, the captivating carnivorous houseplant known as Princess Alice’s sundew. Its charming rosettes of spoon-shaped leaves are adorned with striking bright red hairs, each topped with a glistening droplet of sticky liquid. This unique feature not only gives the plant a sparkling appearance but also serves a practical purpose by capturing and digesting insects such as midges, flies, gnats, and whitefly. Perfect for keeping your home free from unwanted pests in a natural and decorative way. In summer, Drosera aliciae sends up delicate stems from the centre of its rosettes, adorned with clusters of dark pink flowers that add an extra touch of beauty to its already mesmerizing presence. This carnivorous plant is not just a functional addition to your indoor garden but also a conversation starter with its unusual and eye-catching features. Easy to grow and maintain, Drosera aliciae thrives in bright light conditions with at least four hours of direct sunlight daily, making it suitable for placement in a cool conservatory, porch, or a bright room indoors where temperatures remain above 15°C (60°F).  How to Grow Instructions: Light: Requires bright light with at least 4 hours of direct sun daily. Temperature: Keep in a frost-free location with temperatures above 15°C (60°F). Watering: Keep soil moist but not waterlogged; use distilled or rainwater. Feeding: Naturally traps and feeds on insects; no additional feeding necessary. Humidity: Prefers moderate humidity; mist occasionally if air is dry indoors.  Images shown are for guidance only and show the expected results of plants upon maturity.
