ok, so I just bought this sundew and I know nothing about it. What soil does it need? Does it need dormancy? Humidity level? Any other info would be great too. Thanks, Devon Blomquist

It's tropical I believe, I think it's a pretty easy grower... 1:1 peat/perlite like most other sundews. For humidity probably in the 40-50 range is good? It'll adapt I'm sure.

that species will grow in a LOT of conditions. Typical peat-sand or peat-perlite is fine. Anything from really good artificial light to mediocre windowsill light will make them grow and flower, the lower the light the less colour you can expect but they'll deal readily with almost any situation, truly a tough species and one you can depend on to give you very few problems- hope this helps!!
