I got this plant approximately a month ago, from CPgeek (thanks Rob! ) with 2 leaves.
I was expecting something much slower growing (max 4 leaves in a growth period of 6 months, apparently) and temperamental, but nooo!
This is the third leaf it's produced in my care, in just over a month.
Drosera arcturi -Turoa, Mt. Ruapehu, NZ. 1550 m.
Conditions:
I grow it in my basement 13-16*C nighttime, about 17-20*C daytime.
100% Canadian LFSM
Water level is pretty high, just an inch below soil surface.
Lighting: 9 watt CFL desklamp, 2 inches above plant (And they told me it couldn't be done! Muahaha!)
Now to see if it will survive the summer heat...
