Description
The Drosera Adelae is a superb carnivorous plant native to the tropical forests of Australia. It is one of the “Three Sisters of Queenslandalongside Drosera Schizandra and Drosera Prolifera, all adapted to moist, shady environments. Unlike other Drosera, it develops long, tapering leaves covered with sticky droplets that effectively capture insects. Its rapid growth and green-to-red foliage make it an ideal species for tropical plant lovers.
