Question

King Sundew   Hey guys, Jason from AZ here. I'm wondering about the characteristics of the King Sundew. I have enclosed a picture. The plant is growing well and has good dew production. My question is about the leaves. The leaves don't stand very erect as you see. I have it in a west window and It's feed regularly. Is this just how some grow? Floppy style?
Thanks, Jason

Answer
This particular sundew is a mountainous plant, so it likes it very bright and cool throughout the day.  Your plant is getting enough sunlight for optimal dew production, but not enough to sustain turgid leaves.  I have one in my south window.  It's slightly larger than your plant, and all the leaves are erect.  If possible, grow this plant in a south window where it can get more direct sunlight.  If that's not possible, you may need to accept the fact that the leaves will be a bit floppy during the winter months.  It's one of those compromises when growing plants in cultivation.

Good growing!
