Little Carnivores Drosera

Bare root means the plant is shipped without soil or a pot to protect the root system during transit. You will need to have a suitable carnivorous plant potting mix and a container ready to plant it immediately upon arrival.

This is an assorted collection, meaning the specific hybrid or variety is chosen at random. You will receive a healthy, round-leaf Drosera specimen, but the exact visual characteristics may vary from plant to plant.

Sundews are generally rewarding for beginners, provided you use the right soil and water. They require nutrient-poor soil, such as a peat and perlite mix, and must be watered exclusively with distilled, rain, or reverse osmosis water.

While these plants are not lethal if brushed against, they can cause digestive upset if ingested by cats or dogs. It is best to keep your sundew in a location that is inaccessible to pets, such as a high shelf or a terrarium.

No, you do not need to feed them manually. If kept in an area with occasional small insects like gnats or fruit flies, they will catch their own food, which provides them with necessary nutrients.
