IMHO, for our weather, sundews can make do with just half day sun. Afternoon sun at its peak might be too hot for most sundews & they can actually do very well with just full morning sun ( 8 a.m. - 11a.m. + ) & bright area there after.

You`ll get more dew & the plant will look more "relaxed".

Only sarracenias can take whole day sun.
I'm pretty sure it's not D. Intermedia because I have one too and they look different in terms of size and leaf width. Besides, my Intermedia is doing a lot better than my Capensis ): Now that you mention it... I've been cooking my sundews together with my sarra... Thank you for the tips!
