  Had a couple of these spontaneously grow in some sphagnum moss I was growing. Was pretty cool to observe. Every time I’ve tried to actually grow sundews it’s gone badly lol.

    Oh wow, that’s cool! I have butterworts and they’re super finicky, too. I’ve propagated them and it always feels like a gamble which ones will survive, but so far I’ve found the best growing medium to be the sphagnum moss, like you mentioned.

      I think part of the problem for me was also growing them inside when they’re really an outside species. I should probably try some of the South African species! Butterworts are very cool too!

  It’s really not a surprise this particular species is soooo widely spread! :D
