# Hi guys I’ve been having trouble with my sundew :( I have done…

_Publié par Leslie le 2025-03-22_

Hi guys I’ve been having trouble with my sundew :( I have done nothing different but for some reason it’s turning brown. I use distilled water, I keep it in a bog like environment, and I give it enough sunlight. The roots are fine and the soil is a carnivorous plant mix. Could it be because the weather in California has been so crazy? Some days it’s super cold and other days it’s hot. All my other plants are thriving but this one isn’t. This plant used to have red leaves and produce beautiful dew drops. I’m worried :( help please. I asked the same thing in the carnivorous plant section but I wanna make sure I get a lot of opinions and advice. Thank you!! 😊

Looks like it needs more soil and its dormant. Add soil or repot then trim the dead. A touch of cold might activate dormancy. Where they look dead or dying
