A Puerto Rico grower's D. madagascariensis leans sideways; a neighboring D. intermedia is also pale. Both get morning sun and indirect light the rest of the day.
D. madagascariensis
D. intermedia in habitat (NC, August)
Jeff Dallas: Etiolation (weak, elongated growth) results from insufficient light. In nature, these plants receive full sun most of the day. Tentacles should be dark red. Stake the D. madagascariensis stem temporarily; increase light exposure for stronger growth.
Temperate origin doesn't mean cool summers—winters are cold. The photo shows D. intermedia thriving in 90°F full sun in North Carolina. Active growth (no hibernacula) means it wants full sun now.
