The Cape Sundrew is a rosette-forming carnivorous herb in the flowering plant family Droseraceae. This interesting plant has a unique look. They're known for their long, strap-like leaves covered in glistening, sticky tentacles that trap and digest insects. They can then supplement nutrients that they aren't getting from the poor soil. The tentacles secrete a sugary mucilage that lures prey in such as gnats. The gnats get stuck in the sticky substance and the leaf slowly curls around the bug then digests it.
Native to the Cape region of South Africa where it grows in permanently wet, nutrient poor habitats.
Substrate for the Sundews: Use a nutrient poor, mineral free substrate that retains moisture but drains well. The mix is 1:1 using peat moss/ sphagnum moss and perlite. Keep consistently hydrated with distilled water only.

What are Clippings?
Clippings are pieces cut from existing mature plants. They are then placed in water and allowed to build roots. Some grow quickly while others take longer to propagate (grow roots). Once there are several new roots growing and they are at least 1" long it's time to plant. They are great for experimenting, trying new varieties or even adding to aquariums and water features.
Planting
When ready to plant you'll place your clipping in a pot with dirt. You'll want to make sure that the soil stays extra moist for several days to help it acclimatize to its new environment. Congratulations! You have a new plant baby.
