Finding light for Forked Sundew in your home
a window
Forked Sundew love being close to bright, sunny windows ๐.
Place it less than 1ft from a south-facing window to maximize the potential for growth.
Forked Sundew does not tolerate low-light ๐ซ.
Select your region to see how the current weather in your area affects the placement of Forked Sundew in your home ๐ก.
How to fertilize Forked Sundew
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil itโs likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Forked Sundew after it doubles in size or once a yearโwhichever comes first.

New Growth on Forked Sundew Question for my other Sundew owners! I got this guy about a month ago and heโs been sitting in a south-facing windowsill with his pot in distilled water. A little over a week ago he started putting out new growth, but it is significantly longer than the rest of the plant. They are growing rapidly but havenโt shown any signs of โforkingโ like the older growth. At this point, theyโre just kind of getting so long that they flop over. Am I doing something wrong or is this normal when they have a sudden growth spurt? # #CarnivorousPlants #CarnivorousClub

FORKED SUNDEWS (DROSERA BINATA) Welcome to #cpclubthursday Thursday AUGUST the 8th, 2024 ๐OVER 155 MEMBERS !๐ FEATURE: Forked Sundews Lots of people have heard of the CPs called sundews but for most people it means Cape Sundews (a great beginner CP!). But some sundews like a good fork ! ๐ด Iโll let Dr Wikipedia provide an introduction: โDrosera binata, commonly known as the forked sundew or fork-leaved sundew. It is a large, perennial sundew native to Australia and New Zealand. The specific epithet is Latin for "having pairs" - a reference to the leaves, which are dichotomously divided or forked.โ https:// So does any #cpclubthursday member have a forked sundew or planning to get one? Add any interesting Carnivorous Plant (CP) facts, photos, or anything CP-related for this week. Or ask a question of our members related to CPs Join the CP just by clicking the link #cpclubthursday and clicking join. That is all it takes! Too easy! Shall we make it to 160 members ?

Bladderworts - the aquatic CPs Welcome to #cpclubthursday Thursday July the 18th 2024 ๐OVER 140 MEMBERS !๐ FEATURE: Bladderworts Lots of people have heard of the CPs called butterworts (pings!) but how many people have heard of bladderworts ? Iโll let Dr Wikipedia provide an introduction: โUtricularia, commonly and collectively called the bladderworts, is a genus of carnivorous plants consisting of approximately 233 species (precise counts differ based on classification opinions; a 2001 publication lists 215 species). They occur in fresh water and wet soil as terrestrial or aquatic species across every continent except Antarctica. Utricularia are cultivated for their flowers, which are often compared with those of snapdragons and orchids, especially amongst carnivorous plant enthusiastsโ And if you donโt think they are cool yet, check out this video: https:// So does any #cpclubthursday member have a bladderwort or planning to get one for their aquarium or as an aquatic feature of their terrarium? Personally I dont have one (yet LOL) but they are on the list along with a fish tank or aquatic terrarium.
