Drosera eloisiana

A natural hybrid of temperate sundews, named by T.S. Bailey in 2015, found in bogs in north-eastern North America and north-western Europe. It lives in cool temperate bogs with cold winters and needs a winter dormancy. Grow it outdoors in a bog or in cold-temperate conditions, with a cold winter rest as a hibernaculum.
