I absolutely love sundew. I could never actually get seeds to plant from it but it always sprouted little babies in nearby pots

The seeds are incredibly small, you may have gotten lots and not noticed. They look like dust.

Yeah I couldn't tell if I got actual seeds or if it was debris from the flower and stem lol

Any special requirements for growing them?

See my post a month ago , they do have some requirements but if you check a few boxes they are otherwise vigorous and happy.
