Would it be healthy and okay if i were to put sundews in ONLY Peat Moss? My B52s have been this way for a while and completely healthy. Sundews come in soil, but i REALLY want to use moss as it is cleaner and easier to maintain. Anyone have thoughts??? Thank you so much for reading ♡ : )

Thank You! You guys are awesome! I'm am so Happy to be in such an amazing forum! <3

Do you mean lfs (long fiber sphagnum moss)?
Peat moss is pretty much soil already.

In either case, D. capensis is really tough and shouldn't have a problem.

D. capensis is happy in just about any acidic CP mix. Whatever you use, it shouldn't be an issue.
