Hi Susan,

I think most Drosera species can come back from the roots, especially the
ones with very thick roots such as D. capensis and D. binata. I've also
had D. capillaris, D. adelae, D. sp. Magaliesberg, and D. spatulata come
back from the roots or from root cuttings.

Your vft and cephalotus can be propagated via leaf cuttings.
