drosera capensis 'red' - 0

Drosera capensis 'Red', live carnivorous plant, potted

$15.00

Drosera capensis 'Red' is one of the easiest carnivorous plants to grow. It has long, slender leaves with dewy 'hairs' on one side which it uses to trap prey. 'Red' is a recent variety known for its large size, lovely coloration, and pink center. The leaves reach skyward and curl making for a beautiful display. They produce very tall flowerscapes filled with showy pink flowers. 

They are currently in a 3.5" pot and will be shipped potted.

 Drosera Care: Sundews do best in part shade to bright sunlight. They are well suited for growing on window ledges. They must be watered with non-chlorinated water preferably with a low TDS (between 0 and 25ppm). You can use rain water or distilled. Allow to dry slightly but not completely in between waterings. When watering, place plants in a tray and pour water in tray about 1/2” (referred to as the tray method). Avoid watering the crown of the plant. Temperature should be maintained between 60°F and 80°F. Humidity isn't terribly important. Sundews generally tolerate typical household humidities. If your Drosera has little to no dew, increase light. They generally do well in a terrarium.
