D. binata 'Burgundy' (red form)

The Drosera binata 'Burgundy Red Form' is a carnivorous plant that immediately draws attention. What truly makes this Drosera binata special is the deep, wine-red color the plant develops when exposed to the sun.

Unique leaf shape: The leaves split in two (and sometimes more), creating a bushy and impressive appearance. It is one of the most recognizable sundew species.

Spectacular color: As the name suggests, with sufficient light, this plant turns a beautiful deep red to burgundy. Even the sticky droplets on the capture tentacles seem to shimmer like rubies in the sun.

Maintenance and care
The 'Burgundy Red Form' is a vigorous grower that goes dormant in winter and can die back above ground, only to shoot up even stronger than ever from its rhizomes in spring. It's an ideal plant for those looking for something different from the standard round sundew. Give it a sunny spot, and it will reward you with a fiery color that beautifully contrasts with green plants in your collection.

Size: A medium-height grower with long, branched leaves that form a beautiful full clump.

Color: From fresh green with red accents to completely deep burgundy red in full sunlight.

Location: Full sun is essential for the deep red color and the production of sticky dew drops.

Water: Always keep wet. Only use rainwater, distilled water, or RO water.
