How to prune alice's sundew

Any time; tidy dead leaves and old flower scapes as they appear. Gently peel away fully dried outer leaves from the rosette base — they usually detach cleanly. Snip spent flower scapes at the base with fine sterile scissors before seed pods split if you want to prevent seeding. Do not remove living sticky leaves.

As needed — very infrequent; tidy every month or two during the growing season. Alice's Sundew needs almost no pruning. Remove dead or browned outer leaves by gently pulling them free from the rosette base as they die. Flower scapes can be trimmed once blooms fade to prevent self-seeding, or left if you want seedlings. Avoid touching or removing the dewy, glistening carnivorous leaves.
