Drosera slackii's Roots

Drosera slackii unpotted

I've been growing Drosera slackii for a little while now. Recently, my two parent plants outgrew their pot, with one plant sending down an aerial root. I unpotted the plants, intending on potting them in a bigger pot when I sow the neat look of their roots pushing through the mix of sphagnum moss and orchid bark and decided to get some photos.

You can see the crazy aerial root above. As it turns out, I ended up dividing the plants, placing both offshoots in a seperate pot as well as each parent in a separate pot. Unfortunately, running out of room in my collection, I did end up selling off one of the parents, but I'm confident that it's headed to a good home.
