Beautiful vigorous plant - great buy!

A beautiful little plant, was asked when people saw it if that was really dew on the leaves! Grows quickly, has a pretty colour, and a great addition to any collection!

  • These are vigorous and easy-growing seedgrown sundews which prefer slightly cooler temperatures during the hot summer months
  • Bite-size info:
    • 🏡 Outdoors or terrarium with full spectrum artificial lighting
    • 📅 Subtropical perennial. Grows year round
    • 🌱 Mature size: 5cm across

THE OPTIONS

Sizes 
  • Whether you prefer starting off with a younger plant and watch it grow into full majestic glory over the years or jumping in with more munch, right from the get go, we've got you covered! Cultivo is all about choices and our plants are available in various sizes and options to suit your every need
  • The size on offer refers to the maximum size your plant will reach during the upcoming growing season
Bareroot or potted?
  • We recommend sundews as potted plants for beginner carnivorous plant enthusiasts - simply unwrap, water and enjoy!  Potted plants are sent with a protective covering and will be good in this soil for another 6-9 months.  Planter sizes are selected in relation to plant size and range from 5cm to 10cm pots unless otherwise mentioned
  • Bare root plants are for those who wish to pot up and acclimatise their own plants.  Sundews generally have very fragile roots and may take a while to settle in.  Bareroot plants are rinsed and sent in a protective covering with roots wrapped in damp paper towels
  • Still in need of special potting soil? Pick up some of our deluxe premixed growing media for sundews here
