D. Regia hairy root.....?

[pokie22]

I thought some hairy parasite had gotten past my defenses and latched itself onto the backside of my sprouts. However, upon closer inspection it would appear the sprouts are sending out a real root. It is black hairy and has a red tip heading straight for the compost. Can someone please confirm this?

Drosera Regia roots are black, and looks like dead sticks. They are great for propagation though. You could easily get 2 or 3 plants from one inch of roots
