I am starting to question if my cape sundews are some other species or hybrid. First they don’t like a lot of direct sunlight like I have heard. They can handle probably 3 hours of direct sun and if they get to much the turn red, grow smaller leaves with dried tentacles even though the humidity is 40-80%. The other thing is that even though this winter was unusually warm for the most part, it had some days that got around 0°C. The plants still kept growing but a bit slower. But the last week or more the temperatures were dropping below 0°C ( usually around -2°C or -4°C) and they survived just fine like nothing has happened. They even flowered at November and they still have green stalks and seed pods! Are my sundews just very cold tolerant capensis or something else? I will post pictures tomorrow.
I am hungry
