- supplied in an in vitro cup
- The diameter of the individual leaves is up to 3 cm
- Only indirect or low light - otherwise the leaves may burn
- Humidity: 70-90 %
- Temperature: 20-28 °C during the day and 15-20 °C at night.
- Can flower all year round
an ideal choice for lovers of insectivorous plants who have conditions that ensure high humidity. Due to its requirements, it is well suited for terrarium cultivation. The plant reproduces quickly, making it an interesting and dynamic part of an insectivorous plant collection.
Size:
The individual leaves can reach a diameter of up to 3 cm. The main stem is 1-2cm high and the leaves are distributed in a rosette-like form. One stem forms about 15 leaves.
Flowers:
The plant can flower all year round. The up to four inflorescences are about 10-18 cm high and bear 4-8 flowers
light:
Drosera prolifera prefers dim or diffuse light. In the wild, it grows in dense rainforests, so direct sunlight should be avoided as this can burn the leaves.
Substrate:
The best substrate for Drosera prolifera is a mixture of sphagnum peat and perlite or sand in a 1:1 ratio. The substrate should be acidic (pH 4.5-5.5) and well-drained.
The climbing sundew requires constant moisture in the substrate. It is best watered with distilled, demineralized or rainwater, although tap water should be avoided. The substrate should be moist but not flooded.
Feeding/ fertilizing:
Sedums generally do not require additional fertilization as they absorb nutrients from the insects they catch. Occasionally you can feed the plant with small insects such as fruit flies.

very attractive inflorescencesStylidium debile does not feed on insects, but scientists have found that the flowers have a small area on the underside that is capable of catching and digesting very small insects. The plant uses a special trapping mechanism based on the sensitivity of the stamens.
When an insect lands on the flower and triggers the trapping mechanism, the stamens collapse abruptly and hold the insect against the pistil, which also promotes pollination.Stylidium debile has a moderate water requirement. This plant prefers the soil to dry out slightly between waterings. Size:Forms a compact clump of small rosettes of leaves and flowering stems. Mature specimens can reach a height of 5 to 15 cm
