Description This is a Pygmy Sundew, a D. Scorpoides, given that name due to the fact that the traps, when healthy, look like scorpion tails ready to spring.

I bought it from California Carnivores and it arrived 2 days ago or so, suffered some damage during shipping but it should be ok.

Can't get any closer of a shot with my friend's camera, but, soon I'll buy my own.
