- Growing Difficulty
- Intermediate
- Lifespan
- 10-20 years
- Size
- 5-10cm
- Watering
- Insects (auto-capture)
- Light & Placement
- Strong outdoor sun is the key to the deep red color. With too little light the red fades and the plant turns greenish.
- Watering
- Tray-water (bottom watering) to keep it constantly moist, using only pure or rain water. Tap-water mineral buildup is one of the three main killers.
- Soil & Repotting
- Use pure sphagnum or peat moss with perlite. With regular division and repotting it can be kept going for generations.
- Fertilizer
- Never fertilize; feeding fertilizer is one of the three main killers. Photosynthesis and caught insects provide all it needs.
- Dormancy Care
- Let it go dormant at 5-10°C in winter, never in a heated room. Blackened top growth is normal; the bulb underground lives and sprouts in spring.
- Pests & Cautions
- Do not mistake winter dieback for death and throw it out. The reputation for dying quickly mostly comes from errors in dormancy, water, or fertilizer.
