Feeding Drosera venusta: Do You Need to Remove Caught Flies?

Your sundew caught 10–12 fruit flies in days. Should you intervene? No.

In nature, sundews catch prey continuously. At our nursery, thousands of sundews feed themselves—we never remove carcasses. They don't harm the plant. The digestion process handles it naturally.

Just let your D. venusta do its thing. Healthy, well-lit sundews manage their own catch perfectly.
