Finally got into the world of #CarnivorousPlants !

Meet my new Drosera Adelae!

A friend just gifted it to me. I’m excited for the experience! Found a place with adequate sunlight in my room and will, if needed, supplement with grow light. She’s still VERY small.

Awesome!

@Gustavo Wow Gustavo, that’s a great CP to be gifted and it’s often put with two others know as β€œthree sisters of Queensland” based on where they come from.
You’ll have to join us now at #cpclubthursday and share some photos as we often make a Thursday a special day of the week to celebrate all things CPs. Welcome to the CP Club Thursday!

Let me know if I can help at all but in the meantime you might find this useful:

I’m sure you will love it and it won’t be your only CP in time, I’m sure πŸ‘ πŸ€©πŸ˜ŽπŸ˜ƒ
That is SO adorable!!

Welcome to the party πŸŽ‰ #CarnivorousClub
@itsjordan it is!!! The pot is like 2,5 inches! I’m immersed in research right now! And thank you!
@Gustavo I love when plants are that small, I can’t help but stare at my own baby cape sundews every day because they’re just so teeny and adorable!!

Looks like I need to add Adelae to my list of plant interests…
@itsjordan I love small plants and watching them grow! However I’m also the king of anxiety! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ and it looks AMAZING more mature so I can’t wait! But it’s gonna be worth the wait
@Gustavo Congratulations on your first CP! They are fun plants. πŸ˜‰πŸ˜Š
@Seymour wow, thanks! As always, useful and fun content! I’ll be sure to check it out!
@Gustavo That’s a great CP to start with (as you may appreciate when you read the article, it can be the first of many!) . It’s in good hands so just enjoy your CP and hope to see it pop up at #cpclubthursday sometime. I may even feature it and it’s two β€œsisters” this Thursday. Thanks so much for sharing and what a great gift 🎁! πŸ˜€πŸ‘πŸ˜Ž
@Seymour I’m already looking into getting another! I’ve been wanting a Nepenthes for some time now, so maybe the time is coming… will let you guys know!
