She's really expanding upwardly. Should I give her something to grow on or?

I don’t know what she should grow on but you should give her something.

Don’t give this plant anything to grow on, they don’t vine they just grow straight up

I think this might mean it wants brighter light! While ive never been able to keep a round leaf / usually compact sundew like this alive, I give my other sundews very bright light \& they haven't grown much taller stem-wise!

This type of sundew is Tuberous, this means it normally only grows during winter and it just naturally grows like that
