Default Re: Drosera leaf cuttings propogation

I think the media for the leaf cuttings needs to be wetter. If it is not and you are using s. moss, a lot of areas on the cuttings are not touching water or media. The cuttings may die after a while. I use sphagnum peat moss mix with sand, the media that I use for the adult plants. I keep the media very wet and I cover the container completely. Usually 95%-100% survival rate with new plantlets growing.
