    What are these dews?

    I recieved a few sundews earlier this year at the very generous price of free and they were all nicely labeled, but I have lost a few labels and question the accuracy of a few also. Seems like an oppertunity to play name that dew so here goes. Sorry for the pic quality..a cave man took...

    A question to those who grow Drosera under lighting

    Hi I have been growing Drosera for a little while now, but I am hoping for some advice to increase the amount of dew they have. They are growing in 80% humidity and 70 degrees fahrenheit. I think they are getting plenty of light, so I dont think that is an issue. Here are some pics...

    Byblis dewdrops photos - the actual version

    For the past 10 months, I had the good fortune of being able to grow and flower 2-7 plants of each of the seven tropical Byblis species. At first, I noticed that there seemed to be some variation between each species in terms of the how their leaves looked in very bright light. But being an...

    Drosophyllum problems... what is wrong with it?!

    For the past couple months, my previous healthy 2 yo droso has gone from awesome, to dieing back from a particular spot on the plant.. Totally healthy, dew covered leaves are turning black and dropping, and new leaves are growing in a weird curly, unhealthy looking pattern from the side.. It...

    Sundew leaves bending? Help.

    Im wondering what could cause my cape sundews leaf tips to start pointing down and not making dew. The other parts of the leaf look fine. Temperatures are between 85-60 degrees *fahrenheit. Humidity 20-50%. light doesn't seem to be the problem because its still making red tentacles. I did...

    Cost efficient indoor/outdoor grow methods

    I've been experimenting with indoor growing as of late due to problems outdoors. I really think I may live in an environment that is too extreme for carnivorous plants. Gulf coast, Texas. Summer temps are often over 100 and humidity can be 85+ with that temperature. I put my plants out in full...

    Some plants... (You could say it is a "Quarter of my collection")

    Hello! Almost all of my plants are doing quite well at this point, so I figured I would take some pics. The coin is for size comparison. It is a Canadian quarter, which is the same size as an American quarter. My dear falconeri, doing very well, and becoming quite large with regular feeding...

    My Dichotoma Giant spins webs?

    In the morning times and occasionally in the afternoon, I notice that one of my Binata has strings of almost a spiderlike ebbing across some of the leaves. I thought at first that a spider was doing it, however, I have never seen any apider to go with the web. It would have to be a small apider...

    What has your sundew snagged?

    For me, the most fantastic quality about sundews is the way they capture their prey. Whether they curl and tighten around struggling insects or just smother them in dew and tentacles, these plants can be incredibly dramatic. I've seen dedicated sundew picture threads, but I have not come across...
