Drosera rotundifolia has a circumboreal distribution, this sundew is being found in all of Northern Europe, much of Siberia and large parts of North America. Because Drosera rotundifolia appears in the northern hemisphere, it is dormant in wintertime.This carnivorous plant is most suitable for a windowsill or even outside.
 As insects get stuck on its trapping leaves, the tentacles, which are covered in dewdrops, fold around the insect.

Sundew rotundifolia (Drosera rotundifolia), is a hardy sundew species. It is a carnivorous plant that is also suitable for outside, for example at the pond. Drosera rotundifolia, also known as Sundew rotundifolia, requires specific care for a successful breeding. Provide clear, indirect light, since this sundew throws well in light conditions that are not too intense. Use distilled or rainwater and keep the soil moist, but prevent stagnant water. A humidity of 50-80% is ideal; A terrarium can help to keep these levels for your Drosera rotundifolia. The plant grows best at temperatures between 15 °C and 25 °C, with cooler nights that are also beneficial for Sundew rotundifolia. A well-draining, nutrient-poor mix of Sphagnum, peat and Perliet is essential for the health of Drosera rotundifolia. This carnivorous plant catches insects for nutrients, but can also survive without extra fertilization. Ensure sufficient air circulation to prevent mold and regularly check teasing. During the winter, Sundew rotundifolia has a rest period, so the water gift decreases during this time.
 During the summer (growing season) it's best to put a dish with a layer of water underneath the pot.
