Drosera capensis care
The Cape sundew is naturally found in South-Africa, specifically the Cape area, which explains its common name. Here, the plant grows in subtropical climates. It’s also an invasive species in some other areas, such as New Zealand, where it’s prohibited.
This plant has evolved to be quite hardy and can withstand a wide range of temperatures, which makes it a good option for beginners just getting into carnivorous plant growing.
