Drosera scorpioides, also known as the Shaggy Sundew, is named after the Latin word for scorpion, "scorpio," due to the shape of its curved leaves resembling a poised scorpion's tail. This unique plant originates from Western Australia and can be found in locations such as Albany, Manypeaks, Bowelling, and Gidgegannup. It typically grows on rocky outcrops blended with silica sand in open areas of woodland or swamp.
