Description: Drosera is dedicated to celebrating New York City’s natural heritage and helping people reconnect with nature. We encourage re-vison – training our eyes to see the beauty in our local native flora. And as people come to know a place well, they develop an affinity for it, sensing what makes it unique and magnificent. New Yorkers need to restore this sense of serenity and direct connection with the earth that city life often discourages.
