Pink Sundew Drosera capillaris Carnivorous Plant

Our Pink Sundew plant, Latin name Drosera capillaris, is a favorite for a terrarium, carnivorous plant collection, or bog garden. These are "flypaper" plants that catch their prey by getting them stuck on the hairs that are on the leaves. Their leaves are like long tentacles that protrude from the center covered in fine sticky hairs. 

We find that these bog-loving plants do best when kept in a humid environment and only given distilled or rainwater. They love bright light. Also, be sure not to put them in regular soils as it is too nutritious for them and they get too many nutrients. When they are either in your home in a proper environment or outdoors there is no need to feed them on a regular schedule. They should catch some gnats or flies from the air naturally and it doesn't take much to keep them full and fed.

Available in the following packaging based on your preference:

• Nursery Pot - Standard plastic 2-inch planter pot that can be placed inside a larger pot or left as is until it outgrows it.
• Wanda Ceramic 3"   - Elegant Hexagonal patterned planter pot with bamboo base. 

If your plant needs added humidity our Plant Mister would make a perfect addition to your plant shelf for both function and beauty.
