Drosera linglica

Drosera ×linglica is a natural hybrid between the great sundew D. anglica and the slender-leaved D. linearis, found in calcareous fens in Quebec and the Great Lakes region. It has long, narrow sticky leaves and, like both parents, survives winter as a tight resting bud. It needs full sun, wet mineral-rich peat and a genuine cold winter.
