Drosera lowriei
A small tuberous sundew from the south-west of Western Australia, forming a flat rosette 3–4 cm across of green to red, overlapping leaves. It grows in the cool, wet winter and spends the hot, dry summer underground as a tuber. It needs full sun, a cool wet winter and a dry summer rest.
Where it grows wild
It grows in coarse sandy and loamy soils in seasonally wet ground near granite outcrops, where runoff from the bare rock keeps the soil moist in winter. The rosette lies flat on the soil in open, sunny ground.
No records carry an elevation. The area is the low wheatbelt plateau and south coast plains, mostly about 200–400 m.
