Drosera anglica, commonly known as the English sundew[3] or great sundew,[4] is a carnivorous flowering plant species belonging to the sundew family Droseraceae. It is a temperate species with a circumboreal range,[2] although it does occur as far south as Japan, southern Europe, and the island of Kauai in Hawaii, where it grows as a tropical sundew. It is thought to originate from an amphidiploid hybrid of D. rotundifolia and D. linearis, meaning that a sterile hybrid between these two species doubled its chromosomes to produce fertile progeny which stabilized into the current D. anglica.[5]
