Care Guide - Keeping Your Sundew Thriving
Drosera Binata āMarston Dragonā is easy to care for with a few basics. Hereās what you need to know to keep it healthy:
- Sunlight: Grow your plant outdoors in full sun for strong growth and vibrant colours
- Water: Keep the soil consistently moist using mineral-free water, but avoid waterlogging. Distilled or rainwater works best
- Maintenance: Trim any dead foliage for a tidier look and remove flower stalks if you want to grow a bigger plant faster and with tons of sticky dew
- Dormancy: Drosera Binata goes dormant in winter. During this time, reduce watering slightly ā just keep the soil a bit damp. Fresh growth will appear in spring (October-November)
- Repotting: For best results, repot into fresh carnivorous plant soil each year during winter dormancy to keep the soil nutrient-free and support healthy growth
All online orders come with a free, detailed care sheet to help you get started and keep your plants thriving!
