Oliver in Johannesburg received an unidentified sundew (15mm leaves, 25mm flower stalk). Christopher advises: identify via online photos (cobraplant.com); keep in partial/indirect sun; use tray with 1/4 pot depth mineral-free water (distilled/RO/soft <50ppm); feed small insects occasionally if dew production good; mosquitoes excellent prey; never fertilize soil.
Notes Drosera capensis curls leaves around prey in ~30 minutes; D. adelae moves tentacles slowly without leaf curling.
