D. ordensis mulligans lagoon

I'm growing CPs in the Desert of Tucson, Az

i have 2 D. ordensis "mulligans lagoon" plants. they are planted in 5 inch pots and one is turning redish in the middle. it seams to be growing still. i have supplied a picture of this plant and the one that grows right next to it. please advise on if the red in the middle is ok, or the sign of something going wrong.

thanks,
 
Browning in the center might be an early stage of crown rot. This is caused by humidity that is too high.
 
Though I have not grown D. ordensis "mulligans lagoon", I have grown several other Petiolaris complex Drosera. I find that, in good light, many of them color up in the center of the plant (the crown) and the leaf blades (traps) before the petioles.
