Common Sundew

Drosera rotundifolia, commonly known as round-leaved sundew, is a traditional medicinal plant native to Europe and parts of Asia. While its use in traditional medicine has not been extensively documented, studies have explored various aspects of the plant's biology and potential applications. Research indicates that treatment with Sediflù, which likely contains compounds from Drosera rotundifolia, can improve cough symptoms in children within two days. Additionally, investigations into the plant’s ecological role revealed that while prey capture rates are similar across different environments, sundews from drier sites emit more total volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Notably, a study identified Botrytis cinerea as a novel pathogen affecting Drosera rotundifolia, with plants grown on milled peat being more susceptible. In terms of safety and interactions, no major issues or recorded drug interactions have been found to date.
