Soooo… I did a thing. It was painful (emotionally). It’s one thing to take cuttings and start new plants.
This was on a whole other level!

You should notice I keep the pots in a tray of DI/rain/low mineral water.

It is a natural hybrid and will die if it sees much below freezing. It is a pretty nice looking plant and would grow well in your planter. PM me if you want some seeds once the current seed stalk matures its seeds."
You weren’t kidding ‘very, very bright light’!! I would love some seeds… I’ve never tried sundew, but would be willing to try. Are they tricky to grow from seed, or a pretty ‘willing’ sprouter?
PM your address and I'll send you some seeds. I have not checked recently, but when they are ready I'll send you some.
