Hi All,
I bought a drosera Capensis two and a half months ago. It was really healthy for a while, bright green shoots, producing lots of dew, flower stalks, etc.
I transplanted it about 2 weeks later and it looked a little ragged. I got some peat on some of the dew and had a hard time getting it off, but it seemed like the thing to do was to just keep its tray stocked with distilled water and wait for it to rebound.
About a week or two later, I noticed the tips of the new leaves turning black. I was hoping it was temporary, but it seems to have spread, and now all the leaves are yellow/red and it looks like it isn't getting better. It's been about 2 months since transplanting and rather than bouncing back, it has been in continuous decline. I have it in a west/southwest facing window and given that it did so well for a few weeks, I don't think it is a light issue, but I'm not sure.
See some pics of my plant below. Any assistance is much appreciated
