Hi its me agian with the morning photo of my cape sundews. and i was also wondering if you could tell me when cape sundews bloom like what time of the year.

Answer
Hi Ian,

What I told you in the previous post is most likely why your sundews have lost their dew.  They've gone through a transition from coming out of the terrarium.  You'll just need to give them time.  This looks like a good window.  Also, make sure your sundews have a small dish or tray of water to sit in.  If they have dry periods it will affect their dew production and growth.

Chris Littrell gave you a great answer on blooming.  Cape sundews bloom when they are growing well.  It can be almost anytime.

Good Growing!
