Protecting Tropical Sundews During Florida's 24°F Freeze

Justin's Florida experiencing 24°F. Has S. purpurea, D. binata multifida 'Extreme', VFT, D. scorpioides. Which need protection?

Bring Indoors

D. binata multifida & D. scorpioides – subtropical, not freeze-hardy.

Leave Out

VFT & S. purpurea – native to colder zones; 24°F is normal for them.

Simple rule: temperate = stay out; subtropical = bring in.
