DÉTAILS

Instructions d'entretien
Drosera capensis requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth and should be kept in a warm, humid environment. The plant thrives in consistently wet soil and prefers moderate temperatures. It does not require fertilization as it obtains nutrients from captured insects.
Sol
The Cape Sundew prefers a soil mix that is high in peat and low in nutrients. The soil should be kept consistently wet, and good drainage is essential to prevent waterlogging. Avoid using nutrient-rich soil or adding fertilizers.
Engrais
Drosera capensis does not require fertilizer. The plant obtains its nutrients from the insects it captures. Adding fertilizer can harm the plant.
Rempotage
Repotting should be done every couple of years or when the plant outgrows its container. Use a peat-based soil mix and ensure the new pot has good drainage. Handle the plant carefully to avoid damaging its delicate roots.
Propagation
Propagation can be done through leaf cuttings or seeds. For leaf cuttings, place a healthy leaf on moist peat and cover it with a plastic bag to maintain humidity. Seeds can be sown on the surface of moist peat and kept in a warm, bright location.
Taille
Pruning is generally not required for Drosera capensis. However, you can remove dead or dying leaves to maintain the plant's appearance and health.
Toxicité
Drosera capensis is not toxic to pets or humans. However, it is a carnivorous plant, so it is best to keep it out of reach of small children and pets to avoid accidental ingestion of insects.
Supplémentaire
Ensure the plant receives adequate sunlight and humidity, especially if grown indoors. Avoid using tap water, as it may contain minerals that can harm the plant. Use distilled or rainwater instead.
