Default Re: Questions on media used for Drosera.

I use a 50:50 mix of river sand and peat moss for my D capensis and other CP with very good results. Plants like D capensis will even grow in just plain washed riversand as they grow here that way in the wild. The peat moss is just there to retain moisture. I also use 50:50 peat and perlite.

In my barrel bog I have S Leucophylla, S Godzuki, D capensis and VFT growing and flowering happily in peat and sand mix.
