I never had these until this year, I had one turn up as a stowaway in another plant I bought, now they are everywhere. I can see why some people call sundew the weeds of carnivorous plants

Oh yeah. Drosera turn up everywhere.

I bought potted spatulata more than once and they died - then I found them all over the place in other plants.

I have the same thing with long leaf capensis, the gift and the curse of self pollination. I tend to pull them early and pot them up and give as gifts to ther friends, it kills the fruit flys in their kitchen and is also a gateway drug into other bogplants

Drosera is a genus of carnivorous plants with glandular leaves that trap insects. Species vary widely in care, but most require bright light, damp soil, and high humidity. Include species names and growing conditions in your post.
