Pale Cape Sundew - Drosera capensis 'Albino' - Carnivorous Plant - Live Arrival Guarantee - 3" Pot & Soil Included - Predatory Plants

I bought this little Sundew plant and received it very quickly and everything was in good condition. The directions on how to set the plant up were very clear and concise. I wanted to put it in my kitchen as I occasionally get those little black gnats that come in with fresh fruits and vegetables. My kitchen window looks out over an enclosed front porch at my house so I was afraid the plant would not get enough light and I bought this little LED plant light to put over it: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09PQB48X3?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details I also wanted a slightly nicer looking pot to plant it in, as it was going to be on my kitchen windowsill, so I bought this little planter that has a terra-cotta inner pot and a clear glass outer pot that you fill with water and then put the terra-cotta pot inside it and the water soaks through the terra-cotta and into the inner pot watering the plant https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09KP7GCWL?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1 The instructions say NOT to use tap water and fortunately I have a big RO/DI water unit for my saltwater fish tanks and I just used some water from it to water the plant. I've only had it a few days and it's already producing dew on the leaves. So far I am very happy with the purchase. If I do well with this plant I would like to get some pitcher plants.

Cute plants! They’re thriving and capture the annoying fruit flies that get in my apartment! Definitely a good purchase and I love how they look in the light. Just make sure to follow planting instructions and they won’t die. I use distilled water for them and they do just fine.

It arrived mostly brown after somehow being with the USPS for nearly a week even though it was shipped from 2 hours down the road. After getting it unwrapped and in a tray of distilled water, it nearly recovered until it slowly turned brown and died off. I tried different locations (more light, more humidity) in the house, and it just didn't work. I bet that they are good plants, in general, but RIP to mine.

I love to garden and I start many of my own plants from seeds. Unfortunately, some potting soil we bought was infested with fungus gnats, harmless but annoying little pests who love to fly right into your eye. I didn't want to spray poison inside my house, and I happened to watch a video with my kids about the Sundew. (ZE Frank has a great episode about this if you want to laugh and learn...) Anyway, this plant arrived in good shape, with plenty of dry moss that served as both packing material and growing medium. My kids have been delighted to watch the plant catch and devour the gnats, and the plant is growing and doing great.

Did arrive alive but with one broken stem and no "dew". Followed all instructions but it never improved. Meant to have as indoor plant but even if I left it outdoors, I don't think this little one would've thrived. Plants by mail aren't realistic.

This plant is great for controlling gnats and fruit flies. It is rare that I see one of those things buzzing around now. The instructions to plant were excellent, and the packing material is itself sufficient for "soil". I've had mine for four months now and it is flourishing.

It was packaged so well they smashed it to smithereens. Every little arm was pulp when I took it out of the plastic bag. I planted it anyway, to see if I could get it to grow. After 2wks, I have two itty bitty baby arms growing.

Our house was mysteriously overrun with little gnats, and while flypaper did the trick, it was certainly not elegant or pleasing to the eye. I've always had a passion for carnivorous plants, but struggled to have any success in the past. This sundew exceeded my expectations and gave me the confidence to buy more plants from this vendor in the future! It arrived in a box padded with peat, wrapped tightly, with just a couple of arms. No dew at all. I was a bit skeptical as to how it would do, especially considering all I had for lighting was a HappyLight for my seasonal blues, but by the end of the month it was thriving. It's constantly producing new arms and as you can see it is quite dewy. One trick for new sundew owners who want to make sure their plant gets plenty to eat in the winter months: Use BettaMin (betta flakes)! Simply crush the flakes and mix them with a bit of distilled water, then spread them on a couple of arms at your discretion a few times per month. Attached is a quick pic of the aforementioned plant, who has tripled in size since I purchased it just a few scant months ago.
