Two plants growing in a sandy mix
Notice the expired flower stalks
Pygmy sundews are a subgenus (Bryastrum) of Drosera that are all very small. Native to western Australia, these plants grow in sandy soils that experience cool wet winters and hot dry summers. They reproduce using small brood bodies called gemmae, and often become dormant in warmer weather, dying back to a cone shaped mass of stipules. Drosera eneabba grows near the town of Eneabba, which means "small springs" in indigenous Australian. This species is rather similar to Drosera parvula. It's got skinny leaf petioles with bright red traps, and hair plant centers. However, the plants don't seem to grow as compactly and instead grow more upright. It's also a bit bigger. This species follows pretty typical pygmy sundew care, and benefit from frequent feeding. The flowers are also a relatively big for the plant, and a nice white color.
