I'm fairly new to this plant but I love it. It's one of the few CPs that actually likes my local climate. This is one of my seedling still under LEDs but it's ready to go outside. It caught something it likes and has really made a giant drop of dew.

Wow where did you get your hands on Drosephyllm seeds or did you get it as a seedling (sorry if I've spelled the Latin wrong I'm not awfully familiar with dewy pines).

I grew it from seed from Petar Kostov in Bulgaria. They take a little work to germinate but it's not difficult. I have some more seeds on my trade list. If I can grow them, most anyone can.

If you get some seeds pm me and I'll tell you what worked for me. I was just talking with someone today about how I germinate and transplant the seedlings. I just now moved one of my babies that was hitting the lights outside. Luckily they are LEDs and don't really get hot.
