So I was reading François Mey's blog, and he announced that a new species has been described.

Read the full post here as it's better if you read it there, plus you might enjoy his very nice blog!

Hi,

Drosera ultramafica seems to be an easy grower, not much harder than D. spatulata. My plants have not yet flowered, but in case they set seeds as easily as D. spatulata i am sure, that this plant will make it soon in most of our collections. A real nice discovery, take a look at the picture in the type description!

Looks unique for a rosetted sundew. Seedbank, please!

I like it! Just imagine how awesome a biotope terrarium with a N. attenboroughii would look! Sulawesi definitely has some awesome flora and fauna.
