​Sundew Plant Care

• Provide a light and acidic soil mixture that holds in moisture.
• Sundews need full sun or partial sunlight to grow.
• Water with distilled water or rainwater.
• Give your sundew a high amount of humidity.

​Cape sundews need at least 6 hours of light, but 8 to 12 hours is the best.
​A combination of full and partial light is the optimal option but artificial lighting also helps.

Drosera Spatulata

​Drosera spatulata, or the Spoon-leafed Sundew, is a carnivorous plant species forming spatula shaped leaves up to an inch long. It is easy to care for and grows vigorously when given the right conditions. The leaves are covered with tentacles (trichomes) that secrete a sticky “dew” to attract and catch prey. The dew also contains enzymes that aid in digestion. Eventually, the plant absorbs all of the nutrients in the bug leaving only the external skeleton.
