Drosera admirabilis, commonly referred to as the "floating sundew", is in the carnivorous us plant family Droseraceae. The nickname "admirabilis" was first used in literature by Paul Debbert in 1987[1] and was derived from how "admirable" the plant appears when it reaches a fully matured specimen. Structurally similar to Drosera aliciae, and Drosera cuneifolia, the D. admirabilis grows in a single tight rosette-shaped leaf bundle. The leaves widen towards the end and have rounded tips. Leaves lay horizontally under proper lighting conditions. In temps around 60-75F, this species seems to thrive the most, and will flower even without feeding, once full-grown.
