Drosera rotundifolia, also called the round-leaved sundew, is an intriguing carnivorous plant found in wetland areas across North America, Europe, and parts of Asia. This unique species is known for its rounded, spoon-like leaves that are covered in tiny, sparkling glandular hairs that emit a sticky fluid used to catch and consume insects. The glistening, dew-like drops on its leaf surface create a gem-like effect, making it an attractive addition to any plant collection.
Thriving in bright light and constantly damp, acidic soil, Drosera rotundifolia mimics its natural bog-like conditions. It is well-suited for terrariums, marshy garden areas, or outdoor planters in cooler climates. This resilient plant is low-maintenance, as it absorbs nutrients from trapped insects. Great for both novices and seasoned plant enthusiasts, Drosera rotundifolia brings an element of charm and function to any setting with its fascinating insect-catching ability and lovely round leaves.
