- Growing Difficulty
- Advanced
- Lifespan
- 3-5 years
- Size
- 20-40cm
- Watering
- Insects (auto-capture)
- Light & Placement
- Strong direct sun and good airflow are essential. Grow it on the dry side in a breezy, sunny spot.
- Watering
- Unlike most carnivorous plants, water only after the medium has dried. Tray watering is strictly forbidden.
- Soil & Repotting
- Use a well-drained, slightly alkaline sandy mix of sand, perlite and limestone powder. It strongly resents transplanting, so do not repot.
- Propagation
- It is normally raised from seed. Because it dislikes transplanting, sow seed directly into its final pot.
- Pests & Cautions
- Overwatering and poor airflow are the main causes of failure. Treating it like a bog-type carnivorous plant will kill it.
