Pale SundewDrosera lunata

Keep the substrate consistently moist, never allowing it to dry out completely. Use distilled, rainwater, or reverse osmosis water to prevent mineral buildup.

Water from the bottom by setting the pot in a shallow tray of water. Reduce watering slightly during dormancy but maintain moisture.

Pruning is generally not required for Drosera lunata. Remove any dead or dying leaves or flower stalks as they appear to maintain tidiness and prevent potential fungal issues.

This also encourages new growth and keeps the plant looking its best. Use clean scissors.

Drosera lunata can be propagated by leaf cuttings or seed. For leaf cuttings, carefully remove a healthy leaf and place it on moist substrate. Roots and plantlets will form from the cut end.

Seeds require stratification and specific conditions to germinate successfully.

Repot Drosera lunata every 1-2 years, ideally in spring before active growth begins. Use a peat-based, nutrient-poor potting mix, such as a blend of sphagnum peat moss and perlite or silica sand.

Ensure the new pot has drainage holes and is slightly larger than the previous one.
