But, soon you’ll be asking “How in the world did a capensis seed get there!?”

FYI, drosera flowers only open for about an hour or so – they’re incredibly easy to miss.
Also, they seed extremely prolifically, and their seeds are spread by wind, so if you’re not careful with preventing seeding, they WILL start growing in all of the nearby pots (that have carnie-appropriate conditions). They are known as the ‘weeds’ of the carnivorous plant world for a reason.

Yeah they’re an absolute weed. You’ll have them everywhere in no time if you have other plants nearby. If you do then recommend cutting it off once the blooms die. I got rid of mine a few years ago and still find them popping up in other containers.
