Soil Requirements: Use a well-draining, acidic soil mix. Sundews prefer moist, slightly acidic soils (pH between 4.5 and 5.5).
-
Light Conditions: Choose a spot with indirect sunlight. These plants prefer partial shade, especially during the hottest part of the day.
-
Watering: Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged. Sundews thrive in high humidity, so regularly misting the plant will help maintain ideal conditions.
-
Temperature: Ideal temperature range is between 60°F and 75°F (15°C to 24°C). Avoid placing them in areas where temperatures drop too low.
-
Germination: To germinate, scatter the seeds on the surface of the soil and lightly press them down. Keep the soil moist and place in a warm, indirect light location. Germination typically occurs within 2-4 weeks.
-
Care and Maintenance: Once established, these plants require minimal care. Be sure to remove any dead or damaged leaves to encourage new growth. Avoid using fertilizers, as Sundews get their nutrients from insects.
