Drosera binata (Forked-Leaf Sundew)

The forked-leaf sundew, Drosera binata, is an unusual looking plant, bearing ‘forked’ leaves covered in tiny hairs, capable of trapping insects and spiders.

It’s a good choice for growing in a hanging basket if you can keep the soil moist, as this is the best way to show off its incredible forked leaves, which can trail down over the side.

Grow Drosera binata in full sun in a nutrient-poor, neutral to acidic medium, such as sphagnum moss mixed with sand or perlite. Keep well watered, ideally with rainwater.
