Drosera whittakeri *

Waitpinga, South Australia

We found lots of these on the path we took for our bushwalk. They are tiny plants that live where there isn't much in the way of nutrients, particularly nitrogen. To get around this they are carnivorous. They have sticky modified leaves with enzymes that attract, trap and digest insects.
