Drosera anglica
Sundew
- Unit price
- / per
Drosera anglica is a species in the carnivorous plant genus Drosera that is native to North America and grows in peatlands. The typical pH levels this plant thrives in is 5.6-7. This sundew creates long thing leaves, very similar to Drosera Intermedia, but the leaves are larger and attached to the main stalk. Sometimes known as a long-leaved sundew or english sundew.
Type: Hardy perennial carnivorous plant
Location: Sun
Hardiness zones: 2-9
Seeds per packet: 5
Note: These seeds are quite small, though larger than most sundew seeds. It's just how they naturally are. Reading glasses are recommended to aid with seeing them, even for those who don't normally require glasses to read. The seeds are shipped in either a wax envelope, or folder within a small paper. Open carefully, and sprinkle onto the growing medium. Do not bury the seeds. Germination information is below.
Sprinkle the tiny seeds on top of the growing medium. Do not cover them. Use a mixture of 50% peat moss and 50% perlite. These seeds require a cold stratification period of 6 weeks with light (currently testing if they will grow without light). After the cold stratification period is complete, bring them back to room temperature and keep wet with distilled, rain or reverse osmosis water (bottom watering is a great method for this). Seeds should germinate in 1 to 3 months, though some stragglers may take up to a year.
Ornamental use only. These seeds and or plants are poisonous.
