Drosera binata

Flowering Plants

Drosera binata, commonly called the forked sundew or fork-leaved sundew, is a large perennial carnivorous plant in the sundew family, Droseraceae, native to southeastern Australia, from Queensland to Tasmania, and to New Zealand. Its species name refers to its distinctive leaves, which fork dichotomously and can reach up to 60 centimeters in length, setting it apart from related sundew species with narrower, unbranched foliage. It was first described by the botanist Jacques Labillardiere.
