Drosera Nidiformis x Drosera Natalensis
Drosera X Snyderi
A hybrid of Drosera nidiformis and Drosera natalensis. Easy to grow rosette created by Ivan Snyder. An easy to grow from seed carnivorous plant that catches its own fertiliser (insects). As with most carnivorous plants it grows in an acid wet environment, so the best medium to use is sphagnum moss peat (without added fertiliser) or well rinsed coconut coir and perlite. Most carnivorous plants catch insects because they grow in acid/ wet environments where nutrients are lacking. They also never tend to see alkaline water so it is best to water with rainwater.

Propagating by division
From Early Spring TO Late Winter
Drosera tend to form clumps over time, and the clumps can easily be divided and the divisions re-planted
Planting
From Early Spring TO Late Winter
Plant in a mix of 1 part peat, 1 part sand, 1 part long-fibred sphagnum (LFS), and 1 part perlite. Rinse your media before you use them . Can be planted at any time. Keep the plant in sub-tropical conditions, if possible.
