Drosera Capensis

SUBSTRAT

Your choice :

-2/3 white peat 1/3 perlite

-2/3 blond peat 1/3 Loire sand<== I recommend this one.

TEMPERATURE

Summer :
maximum 40°C, (can tolerate more provided the substrate is well moistened)
Winter :
-1°C, can withstand frosts in a cold greenhouse.

Ideal temperatures: In the growing season 20-30 degrees, make sure not to exceed 40 degrees.

When resting at 0-10 degrees, take care not to drop below -5 degrees.

WATER and HYGROMETRY

Water:
A saucer or tub with about two centimetres of water should submerge the base of the pot, or even up to the height of the pot in summer. In winter, the substrate should always be damp, but not soggy.
Hygrometry:
Not important for this species.

LIGHT

High light levels, especially during the growing season. A good luminosity allows a beautiful coloration and a good development of the plant.

DORMANT PERIOD


:
