Description
Drosera nitidula, commonly known as the Shining Sundew, is a pygmy sundew species native to southwestern Australia's coastal regions. Prized by collectors for its diminutive, glistening rosettes typically 10-20mm in diameter, this species displays the characteristic sparkling mucilage droplets that define the genus.
