Hey guys!
Repotting one of my cape sundews today. Going to attach some photos below. I took some leaf pullings because some of the leaves were beginning to die back and I figured it would be best to start fresh. Going to replant the crown level with the soil. How do I go about propagating these root cuttings I took? I also kept the leaves I picked off, is it possible to propagate these too?

New to all of this, any help appreciated. Thanks!

You can propagate the leaf cuttings by just placing them in distilled water, then waiting till you see some sprouts, from there just move it to your potting medium. For root cuttings, just lay in peat/perlite and it will strike.

Good Luck!

Do I have to bury the roots in the peat/perlite or just lay them on the surface?

You could just lay them on the surface, but I typically slightly push the roots into the soil a bit.
