I’ve never had success with drosera adelae. the mother plant from lihui died a few months back, but not before sprouting a few babies I was lucky to spot before throwing the entire thing out. I experimented with them at different locations but they all didn’t do well until I got fed up and left the pot in a dark corner. lo and behold, the little guy (centre) started dewing again so I moved its siblings into the same pot. as it turns out, adelae likes it very shady, with medium humidity, and low water levels. today, they’re all doing fine, but growing very slowly. for reference, the hitchhiking tokaiensis was a seedling and has since overtaken the adelae in size. perhaps I shall feed them once they’re a bit bigger.
