Drosera capensis 'Broad Leaf'

Drosera capensis 'Broad Leaf': The germination requirements for Drosera capensis 'Broad Leaf' are similar to those of the standard Drosera capensis. Sow the seeds on the surface of a peat-based soil mix and keep the soil moist and warm. Germination can take anywhere from 1-2 weeks to several months.

Some of plants may have very have specific germination requirements that may not be covered in these general instructions. 

Many seeds require pre-treatment before sowing which we try to list here when we can, but this information may not be present here.  Germination times and germination temperatures are to be a guide only.  Many factors can DRASTICALLY affect this.

 

It's always a good idea to research the specific germination requirements from multiple sources for each plant before attempting to grow them from seed.
