Signs of Cold Stress in Spoonleaf sundew

Symptoms

Spoonleaf sundew tolerates cool temperatures moderately well, flourishing optimally between 70℉ and 80℉. In colder months, temperatures should remain above 60℉. If temperatures drop below 50℉, foliage may darken. Extreme cold can lead to water-soaked tissue death, 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 indoors, position it near a south-facing window for adequate light. If natural light is insufficient, provide artificial illumination.

Prune off any sun-scorched or desiccated sections. Relocate the plant to an area offering protection from the afternoon sun. Water the plant in the morning and evening to maintain soil moisture.
