Product Description
Live healthy Drosera Spathulata Sundew plant about the size of the one in the picture. Comes with a 3 inch net pot, just like the one in the picture, moss ideal for soil, and a detailed caresheet explaining how to take care of Sundews. Spathulata Sundews may be greener and lack a reddish tan during the cooler months of the year. All you will need is a bowl or saucer to hold the Sundew's pot that it comes with and a little bit of water, a gallon or so of reverse osmosis or distilled water, and a sunny window to put your Sundew in. Humidity domes and year round warm weather is not necessary. Don't be fooled by other offers for Carnivorous Plants that have them arrive in or with terrariums or humidity domes. These type of plants have strong light requirements and it is a myth that they need high humidity. The truth is that Carnivorous Plant setups with terrariums or humidity domes almost always cause these types of plants to eventually die. They need to be grown in open air with containers that allow air to get into their soil and there should be little to block or diffuse their lighting.

I only have one thing I would change - for the love of all of us people with short attention spans and eager finger, please put the instructions on top, with a big "READ FIRST". I had already unboxed everything and cut the bag open to take the plant out before I noticed the paper in the bottom, which had important information a first-time carnivorous plant owner might not be aware of - like leaving the plant in the bag until you're absolutely ready (because the moss has to be soaked first), and you have to use distilled/rain water (not just the usual water left out over night for the chlorine to evaporate).
But so far my little sundew seems happy. Not only has it put out new leaves, It's even putting out some flowers!
I'll definitely be looking here when I'm ready to try something new. ^_^
I am very happy with this purchase and look forward to ordering from this seller again soon.
I am very happy with this purchase and look forward to ordering from this seller again soon.
Have your gallon of distilled water ready and be ready to always keep some in stock for your sundews.
Very pleased with the quality, packaging, size of the plant and the instructions.
It makes a great addition to my floating sphagnum bog prop box.
Don’t forget the distilled water!
