Description: **NOTE ON SIZING COMPARED TO OTHER LISTING:** This sundew will be at least 5-7 inches across shipped as a bare root wrapped with peat moss wrapped in damp paper towel, ready to be transplanted into a new or existing container with pure peat, peat-perlite mix, or long-fiber sphagnum moss. The plants in this listing are a few inches larger than my other listing, and will be ready to eat flies and grow even larger in no time! Benefits of a larger plant include being more effective in catching pesky bugs as well as closer in maturity to grow flowers! Photo #1: A very accurate size to what you will receive in the mail. Bare root sundew, will be wrapped with peat moss and paper towel and shipped in a ziploc bag Photo #2: Another picture of a sundew of similar size Photo #3: An overhead comparison showing different sizes starting from left to right 3-4in, 4-5in, 5-7in, and the largest one I have which is almost 10 inches across!

With its vibrant red and green hues, this stunning plant is sure to captivate any plant lover. Not only is it beautiful, but it's also practical—place it near areas where small fruit flies tend to gather, and watch as it naturally helps keep them under control. The sundew is a bog plant and prefers to always sit in filtered water with little to no additives, see pictures in description for a typical tray system that I use to grow these, I usually keep around 1-2" of water in the tray depending on the size of the sundews. The plant enjoys full sun, and will produce more dew when exposed to lots of sunlight. In the right conditions it can grow pretty large, bigger than your hand! It also flowers pretty regularly (see picture for detail). All in all, a very easy plant to grow! Whether you're a seasoned carnivorous plant enthusiast or just starting your exotic plant journey, this Cape Sundew is the perfect addition to bring a touch of the extraordinary into your home
