Put one water tray as water level 1/2-2/3 the pot.
Rain water or well water for watering.
Full sunlight , no shade.

« Reply #6 on 17 May, 2007, 22:19 »hey Lim.....thx for posting the pix of my fav sundew....BIG S-M-I-L-E from me.

btw, i grow my d.adelae in full sun outdoors. does very well......the one in semi shade is quite moody. always dries up & then regenerates itself. the one outdoors maintains its vigour...i`m crossing my fingers & waiting for them to flower. will post when / if it happens.

« Reply #7 on 17 May, 2007, 22:30 »Actually I grow some of my D. adelae in direct sunlight too. The leaf turn red and more narrower than the D.adelae under the shade. Not dying still survive. But some expert said it is not good for D. adelae. « Last Edit: 17 May, 2007, 22:31 by piscesilim »Link to Post - Back to Top LoggedLimameliepoulain
