Drosera Binata White

Drosera binata,  is commonly known as the Forked Sundew. It is a large, perennial sundew that originates from Australia and New Zealand. The plant has bulbous tentacles that produce a glistening, sticky fluid (mucilage). This glue contains a weak acid and enzymes that can digest the soft tissue of their prey. When an insect is caught, adjacent tentacles are able to move towards it and further envelop and digest the prey. 

Size  Tendrils reach around 4 cm

Light  Sun-loving. Requires 5 or more hours sunlight a day. Can also live in dappled sunlight. Too much heat reduces dewy appearance

Water  Use rain, reverse osmosis or distilled water. Water from the bottom. Keep soil moist

Dormancy  Goes dormant in winter
