Drosera adelae is a rainforest sundew from northeastern Australia that grows in shaded, humid conditions. Its long, narrow leaves are lined with sticky glands used to trap small insects. Leaves are fairly thin. The plant typically spreads by underground stems and can form dense clumps. It prefers consistently moist, acidic soil and stable temperatures. More light can lead to more color but leaves will be smaller.
