Pygmy Sundews


Question
I was looking on your site for tropical sundews and came across two Pygmy sundews: Drosera Roseana and Drosera Scorpiodes.

My question about them is this; would they do well in a terrarium? I currently have 4 Drosera Capensis, 10+ Drosera Spathulata, 1 Drosera Binata, 1 Adult Drosera Burmanii and 10+ newly grown seedlings from its seed pods, 1 Pinguicula Primuliflora, and 1 other Pinguicula I got from your site but is no longer listed there. They are all doing fine and thriving, but I was wondering how the Pygmy sundews would do? Thanks!

Answer
Hi Devon,

Pygmy sundews will do just fine in a terrarium environment, but they like it bright!  All of ours look their best in the summer when it's sunny and hot.  You'll need to get them close to your lights.

Good Growing!
