Drosera pygmaea is a carnivorous, rosette-forming biennial or annual herb native to Australia and New Zealand.[1] The specific epithet, which translates as "dwarf" from Latin, is a reference to the very small size of this plant, which grows to between 8 and 18 mm in diameter.[1] Small, pale flowers are produced at the ends of 1- to 3-inch stems. It is perhaps the most well-known of the pygmy sundews.[2]
