I want one! Hows does it cool the soil?

Well, I have tried to adjust D.adelae to full-sun, outside in
the bogs, they have died from being burned by the sun. D.capensis
thrives, as do all the N. American Drosera in this light. Infact,
I have the close relatives of D.adelae, D.prolifera and D.schizandra,
growing down in the basement (they like it cool). They only get
14 hours of light per week and they are very dewy and red. P.
primiluflora is in with them (but it would like a little more light).
Does D.adelae like more light than it's relatives?
