Salvage broken D. multifida stem

[rcccarnivores]

I was pruning dead leaves off my D. multifida by plucking them off. One of them wasn't quite completely dried yet and I plucked a bit too hard and it ripped the entire stem of the plant from the root system.

I took the stem and put it in a cup of long fiber sphagnum and covered in a zip lock bag for humidity.

I also took a somewhat old flower stalk (still blooming, but only a couple flowers left to go), chopped into 2 inch pieces, and floated them in water to see if I can get some propagations.

Not sure what's going to bounce back or survive. Any other suggestions to improve my chances?

Wait for the roots to resprout.

You didn't mention putting the cuttings in bright light, though I assume you have. This is essential to forming new plants and new roots. This group of sundews is usually very willing to form new plantlets and new roots so it's a good choice for this kind of treatment.

Thanks yes. Main stem and cuttings are in bright light.
