Question
Drosera Multifida
Hello Mr. Littrell,
I am growing a Drosera Multifida in an east facing window using distilled water and perlite + peat moss soil. I have had it for about 2 months now and it has been sending up new leaves quickly and growing well. Now though it seems the leaves are too big for the stems. Most of the new leaves are all bending down and resting on the windowsill where the pot is. Thanks for your help.
AnswerHello Sterling,
Good going with your Drosera multifida. There is nothing wrong with the plant. If you are concerned about keeping the leaves from resting on the windowsill you can repot the plant in a hanging pot and hang it in the window or you can get it into a larger pot that will keep it higher up and provide more support. This is simply the way this Sundew grows. You could also simply find something to brace the plant upright.
