Drosera biflora

Drosera biflora is a small rosetted sundew of the white-sand savannas of north-western Amazonia, in Venezuela, Colombia and Brazil. It grows in hot, humid, open lowland at mostly 50-640 m, so it needs tropical warmth, strong light and constantly wet sand all year.

Where it grows wild

Open, wet white-sand savannas and seepages in the Amazonian and Guayana lowlands, where it grows in full sun among low sedges and grasses.

The Colombian catalogue gives 50-640 m. The Venezuelan records span 75-1,700 m (median 115 m); the upper values probably come from tepui slopes.
