I'm still newer to sundews.

How often do they flower? I was EXTREMELY surprised to see its popping up another stalk while the one it already had JUST got done flowering.

What an interesting plant

P. S. This is a Drosera capensis "typical"]

A lot of drosera flower like maniacs if kept in good conditions and especially if fed well. I have several that have had 3 or more fully developed stalks on one plant before the first had even finished drying. Capes are notorious for this, but I've had it happen with several others: filiformis, spatulata, riparia, natalensis, "Watari", etc, and I generally don't even feed mine that often.
