Signs of Cold Stress in Dwarf sundew

Symptoms

Dwarf sundew tolerates cool conditions moderately well, flourishing optimally between 65℉ and 80℉. In colder months, temperatures should remain above 50℉. If temperatures drop below 32℉, foliage may darken. Severe cases can lead to waterlogged decay, wilting, drooping, and a gradual browning of the leaves.

Solutions

Remove any parts damaged by frost. Promptly relocate the plant indoors to a warm spot or construct a temporary greenhouse for protection from cold. When inside, position it near a south-facing window for adequate light. If natural light is insufficient, provide additional illumination.
