I was wondering which one is the more strong in temperature and light deprivation

Any guess?

I'd choose Capensis Adelae doesn't like too much sun though. Basically equal, but Capensis is a real trooper.

cape hands down.

D. adelae grows naturally in the rainforests of australia so it doesn't like it too bright. Cold temps might be a problem.

Capensis is a plant that won't die no matter what you do to it.

Can somebody post a pic when the D.adelae lear curling?

Leaf curling as in the leaf curling over its food? D. adelae has minimal leaf movements


If you mean leaf curling as in the growing leaf:

Just remember that D. adelae grows well in lower light, it does need to be kept warmer and in higher humidity than capensis. D. capensis is the easiest to grow (and can adapt to lower light)

@fattytuna:thanks a lot! I was first thinking that d.adelae leaf will curk around it's food like d. Regia does
