Drosera rechingerae

Drosera rechingerae is the alternative spelling of Drosera rechingeri, described by Strid in 1987 from the Kalbarri area of Western Australia. GBIF has no wild records under this spelling, so the conditions below use those measured for D. rechingeri. It is treated as a pygmy sundew with a winter growing season and a long hot, dry summer rest.
