Drosera hamiltonii is a rosette sundew that grows alongside Cephalotus in southwestern Australia. While flowering is infrequent, D. hamiltonii can produce large blooms over 1.5 inches across. The leaves are sparsely covered in tentacles and produce minimal dew, sometimes appearing without dew altogether.
