Description

Drosera auriculata, commonly known as the tall sundew, climbing sundew is a perennial carnivorous plant species native to south-eastern Australia and New Zealand. The species initiates growth as a small, flat basal rosette before developing a slender, erect stem that may exhibit climbing behaviour, typically reaching 15-30cm in height but extending to 50-70cm in shaded conditions. Flowers form in clusters of 2 to 14 and bloom throughout winter and summer, displaying five white or pink petals with entirely smooth, hairless sepals.
