Drosera regia, the king sundew, is in a class of its own. This impressive plant is rare in nature—only a few South African colonies are known. It is considered an archaic species, one of the oldest to survive in modern times. The sword-shaped leaves can approach 2 feet in length and can twist their tapered ends around prey. Each leaf is covered in thick globules of mucilage that can overcome even large and powerful insects.
The plants we are shipping are about 1-2” tall and will grow taller, with more leaves quickly.
Please note that when purchased in winter, these are just emerging from dormancy and are smaller than they will be at full growth in spring and summer. During this time, they will die back to hibernacula in the soil. 

Care Instructions
Growth Habit: The King Sundew has large, long, lance-shaped leaves up to two feet long. Older leaves die back frequently, turning black and shrinking, but many new leaves will grow. Plantlets can grow from the roots; these hardy plants will regrow from roots if exposed to a brief freeze.

Sun: Full to part sun. Grow on sunny windowsills in direct sun, greenhouses, or a terrarium with fluorescent light. These can be grown outdoors in mild climates as long as plants are protected from extreme temperatures and the roots are kept cool. If grown outdoors, provide bright diffused light or morning sun only. They will do well under grow lights on a 10-12 hour day. Place the lights 6-10” from the plants, depending on the strength of your light. When grown indoors, they are usually 10-14” in size. If your plant is not producing dew, it may need more light. 


Water & Humidity:
Water with distilled, reverse osmosis, or rainwater only, as these plants are very sensitive to minerals and salts in their water. Water frequently to keep the plants from drying out, but do not let them sit in the water in the winter months or cool and wet Spring months. Plants can sit in water only during hot summer, but it is best to let them dry out between refilling trays. Always keep plants in water when temperatures are high to help keep the roots cool. They appreciate humidity of at least 50%. 
Temperature: Daytime temperatures are in the 70s-80s, with a 10-20 degree drop in night temperatures. Regia can take temperatures down to 40 degrees, and if they have formed hibernacula, they can tolerate a light freeze, but it is best to protect them. Regia can tolerate brief heatwaves up to 95 as long as the roots are kept cool, they are protected from the full sun, and nighttime temperatures cool down. 
Dormancy: While no dormancy is needed, they will die back to hibernacula in winter if exposed to cooler temperatures in a greenhouse or outdoors. Be sure to water less if your plant dies back. 

Fertilizer: Apply diluted Maxsea fertilizer once or twice a month to the leaves.

Soil & Repotting: King sundews should be grown in a mix of long-fibered New Zealand sphagnum moss, orchid bark, pumice, and perlite. Our custom Nepenthes soil blend is available to add to your order (this is the appropriate mix for Drosera regia), but you do not need to repot your plant after receiving it from us. Regia do not appreciate repotting but should be moved to a bigger pot after 1-2 years. They prefer a tall pot.

Second chance romance
Format: Audiobook
I have loved every single book that Jenn McKinlay has written - so I was delighted to get a chance to read this one early. Julia returns to her childhood home with her two sisters, when her mother Babs gets sick. Julia and her Mom have been almost estranged in recent years, and her mother doesn't seem very glad to have her home. When her mom passes away, the terms of her will reveal some family secrets, and some strings attached to the sisters and how they need to live, before they can inherit moms home and money. Cousin Paisley is hanging in the wings hoping to grab what the sisters should be getting. While home, Julia tries to rekindle her romance with boy-next-door Liam, the guy she had been dating when she upped and left without a word many years ago. We follow Julia and her sisters as they rebuild their relationships, and grieve the loss of their mother. I liked the premise, and really hoped to like the book. Unfortunately this one just wasn't for me. Julia and Liam are just nasty to each other, and most of their issues could be solved with some simple communication. The descriptions of some of the other characters bordered on the mean rather than funny snarky. It seemed that most of the characters were using each other. I listened to the audiobook and have nothing but praise for the narrator, who handled all the different voices really well and kept me interested in following the plot. I hope this was just a blip from this author - as I am really looking forward to her next novel!

Glowing Review
Color: 8 Oz Browning Lotion w/ Body Tanning Brush
I am OBSESSED with this tanning lotion! 😍 Maui Tanning Lotion is hands down the best bronzing product I've ever used. From the moment I opened the bottle, the tropical scent transported me straight to the beaches of Hawaii. It smells like sunshine, coconuts, and pure island bliss! The formula is ultra-smooth and applies like a dream—no streaks, no weird orange tint, just a flawless, deep golden tan that looks like I spent a week basking under the Maui sun. 🌞 The hydration is next-level too. My skin feels soft, nourished, and glowy for days after using it. It’s packed with skin-loving ingredients that make you feel like you’re treating your skin while getting bronzed. Within just one use, I noticed a rich, natural-looking tan developing. It builds beautifully and doesn’t leave behind any sticky residue. Whether you're prepping for a beach trip or just want that sun-kissed goddess glow year-round, Maui Tanning Lotion is IT. 💯 Worth every penny. I'm never going back to anything else! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 10/10 – Take me back to Maui... every time I use this product!

Instant Tan and Beautiful Glow — Just Apply Carefully! 🌴✨
Color: 8 Oz Browning Lotion w/ Body Tanning Brush
I really love this Maui Babe Browning Lotion! It gives you a noticeably darker, sun-kissed tan after just one use it truly works fast. The color payoff is beautiful, and it leaves your skin looking radiant and glowing. The only thing to be careful about is that if it gets on your hands, clothes, or bathing suit, it can leave a mark. I recommend applying it carefully and washing your hands right after. I’ve purchased this twice already because I love the results. Definitely recommend it to anyone who wants a quick, natural-looking tan!

Really works.
Color: 8 Oz Browning Lotion w/ Body Tanning Brush
This is the only lotion that has ever made me hold color! I love that it comes with the brush because the lotion itself is kind of greasy but the brush makes it much easier to rub in!

Works great but oily & messy
Color: 8 Oz Browning Lotion w/ Body Tanning Brush
Works great. You look tanner as soon as you put it on. Very oily and messy. Can leak out of lid even when lid looks closed.
