Sundew 'Drosera burmannii'

The Drosera burmannii is a tropical sundew, which grows throughout Asia and tropical areas of Australia. The snap tentacles which in contact throw its prey into the trap leaves, are rare in the Drosera family.

The Drosera burmannii grows best in a standard peat-perlite mix. This Drosera is tropical and therefore requires high humidity. It is an annual plant, and dies after flowering and seed production. If desired, new plants can be grown again from the seeds.
