1 Live Plant Spoon-Leaf Sundew Drosera spatulata Carnivorous Terrarium Bog Garden
Spoon-Leaf Sundew, Drosera spatulata, is a compact rosette-forming carnivorous plant with paddle-shaped leaves covered in glistening glandular hairs. Its dewy, spoon-like foliage creates a unique natural display in terrariums, bog bowls, and windowsill collections, making it a favorite among carnivorous plant enthusiasts.
This tropical sundew thrives in consistently moist, acidic, low-nutrient conditions and bright light, where it produces charming white blooms on tall slender stalks. It works beautifully in terrariums, bog gardens, and indoor plant collections, where its self-contained rosette stays neat and manageable. Provide distilled water, high humidity, and a sunny spot for best appearance.
