Sundew Tincture & Alcohol-Free Extract

Sundew (Drosera rotundifolia) is the round-leaved sundew, a tiny carnivorous perennial of the sundew family, Droseraceae, native to bogs and wet acidic moors across Europe, northern Asia and North America. It forms a flat rosette only a few centimeters across of spoon-shaped leaves on long stalks, each covered in red glandular hairs tipped with glistening droplets of sticky mucilage that trap small insects and slowly fold around them. In summer a thin stalk rises 5 to 20 cm with a one-sided row of small white flowers. We extract the dried whole plant, supplied as a powder.
