Drosera aliciae, or Alice's sundew is from the cape area of South Africa. Not too picky about soils. It will grow in anything from pure living sphagnum moss, to various CP mixes, such as the standard 'CP mix" of 1:1 peat moss:sand. I like to grow them in in a 60:40 mix of peat:perlite to give their roots a loose moist media to easily grow and spread out.
I have read that it is a bit redder in color when grown in mixes containing peat.
At maturity, these can grow to 3 inches in diameter.
Shipped bare root, carefully wrapped in damp sphagnum.
