Propagating Sundews from Leaf Cuttings: Soil vs. Water Method

Soil Method Is Simpler and More Reliable

For Cape, lance leaf, and pygmy sundews, lay leaves on moist 1:1 peat moss/perlite mix and press firmly so the entire leaf contacts the soil. The water method works but adds steps: potting up plantlets and acclimating them to lower humidity. Our nursery uses only the soil method for consistent results.
