Can be grown indoors on a sunny windowsill all year round, though doesn’t mind a light frost.
Drosera capensis 'Alba'
Drosera capensis 'Alba' - This is the green/white form of Drosera capensis with white flowers and green leaves. Forms a lovely bushy plant, excellent at catching small flies like fruit flies. D. capensis is one of the easiest Sundews to grow and this form is just as easy as the usual pink flowered plant, but makes a nice contrast. There is a very striking red form as well and together they make a lovely display.

Drosera Plant Care
Watering
Keep this plant moist. To make it easy, keep the plant on a dish filled with water. As soon as it is dry refill it.
Location
Keep the Drosera in a light place. If the plant loses its “dew” this is an indication that it needs more humidity. Move to a more humid environment or cover it with glass.
Of the Drosera’s in our current range, the Drosera filiformis, nidiformis and binata are all winter hardy. This does not apply to the rest and they should be brought in before the start of the winter.
Fertilizer
The Drosera does not need fertilizer.
