    Healthy Beautiful Sundew

    Posted by Unknown on July 2, 2020

    Our plant arrived quickly and in good health. It's been a month now, and it is thriving indoors in Boston (sunny window/artificial lights). Dews have become big and look beautiful in the morning sun. It also catches fruit flies and gnats if any.

    Great big capacity.

    It captured a lot of fruit flies/fungus gnats, which is the exact reason I purchased! Using rainwater exclusively, and the plant seems happy with it.

    Ordered a Drosera “Big Pink”. It arrived in a timely fashion and was well packaged. Plant started putting on new growth pretty quickly. Pretty good considering winter is still hanging on here. Fed it some Freeze dried Bloodworms crushed and mixed with water. It ate that like a hungry Wolf. Nice addition to the Carnivorous kitchen window.

    This plant arrived in great condition and was very carefully packaged. As with any plant shipped in the mail, a couple of stems died soon after arriving, but it’s growing like a weed now! It does a good job of catching gnats and definitely cuts down on the population. It’s very pretty as well. Great plant
