Ian Salter Posted December 7, 2013 Report Share Posted December 7, 2013 Pinguicula ( butterworts ) P. grandiflora, P. vulgaris, P. corsica etc.. will all love the shady conditions and will add a lovely splash of colour when in flower.

Adelae Posted December 7, 2013 Report Share Posted December 7, 2013 Or if the humidity is high enough a forest drosera like Adelae or prolifera, according to McPherson Heli Ionasii can also tolerate alot of shade as well. But ping's would probably be the best bet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
