How to care for Drosera Madagascariensis

Difficulty

Even if you don't have a green thumb, you can successfully care for Drosera Madagascariensis due to its easy-going nature.

Soil

Drosera Madagascariensis loves a well-draining soil. Perlite and vermiculite help with drainage, while coco coir adds organic matter, so a good potting soil mix will have all three. You can improve store-bought soil by adding some perlite to it.

Lighting

To ensure optimal growth, the Drosera Madagascariensis prefers bright diffused light for 6-8 hours each day. Insufficient light can result in slow growth and leaf drop, so it's important to find a well-lit location for this plant. Place it near a window, within a distance of 1 meter (3 feet), to enhance its potential for thriving.

Dormancy

During the wintertime, it's common for Drosera Madagascariensis to go dormant and their growth may slow down, so waterings should be spaced out more.
