Drosera bindoon

A south-west Australian sundew described by Lowrie in 2013, recorded around Bindoon and Chittering north-east of Perth. Its growth type is not documented in sources available here; the measured sites give hot dry summers and cool wet winters, so grow it as a winter-growing sundew in full sun.
