Will this be restocked?
- At Cultivo, every release is carefully selected and grown with purpose. We don’t mass restock - most plants are small-batch, seasonal or one-of-a-kind “exact plant pictured” pieces. Once they’re sold, they’re truly gone. That’s why you won’t see a typical “email me when available” option on these listings
- Some seasonal items or small-batch variants may return in the future. If that happens, we’ll update the original listing with new photos and details
- 🔔 For updates on new and rare arrivals, keep an eye on our New Arrivals Collection or join our VIP list above.

Product Details
Description
- Species: Drosera
- Drosera Binata, originating from Australia, grows long stems with forked leaves
- These leaves give Drosera Binata the nickname fork-leaved sundew
- The giant form of Drosera binata var Dichotoma form usually develops 4 branches even from a young age
- Plants generally stay greenish, even in very bright light and grows approximately 30-35 cm tall with monstrous heads - Tentacles may get heavy and start drooping, making this an excellent candidate for hanging baskets with only a few drainage holes
- Each tentacle has a small droplet of glistening mucilage. Insects become stuck to the tentacles and are then digested by the plant
- Once mature, Drosera binata var dichotoma f. pedata (Giant form) will produce tall, vertical stems with clusters of white flowers
Care
- Remove dead foliage for a neater plant
- Flowering requires a lot of energy and might cause your plant to lose it's dew - Cut flower stalks when they emerge for a healthier, dewy plant
- Drosera Binata will enter dormancy during winter (cooler temperatures and a shorter daylight period)
- During the dormancy period the plant will die back to a single winter bud and new growth will emerge late spring - usually around end-September / October
- While dormant - water your plant less frequently (keep the growing media only damp) to prevent root rot
