Drosera rosulata

Drosera rosulata is a captivating carnivorous plant with a basal rosette of sticky, glandular leaves designed to trap and digest insects. The leaves are covered in red tentacles that exude a glistening dew to lure prey. Thriving in nutrient-poor soils, drosera rosulata compensates by absorbing essential nutrients from its ensnared victims, allowing it to flourish in challenging habitats.
