A phylogeny showing that Drosera anglica (2n = 40) has a subgenome from the Drosera linearis (2n = 20) lineage and a subgenome from the Drosera rotundifolia (2n = 20) lineage with photos of Drosera linearis with long, narrow leaves, Drosera rotundifolia with wider than round leaves, and Drosera linearis with intermediate, oblong leaves.
Origin of subgenomes in the circumboreal, allopolyploid, carnivorous plant #Drosera anglica

A stem with two flowers and one bud. The flowers have four deep red petals, contrasting bright yellow pollen, and sepals that appear golden in the sunlight
Have you ever seen gold on a flower before?
This is the flower of the carnivorous plant Drosera calycina, which has striking deep red petals and sepals that glitter like gold in the afternoon sunlight.

Close-up photo of a cyme of small capsules, opened to reveal a sky-facing cluster of tiny, shiny, black seeds.

I just noticed that the capsules on Dionaea muscipula open to form splash-cups for raindrop dispersal of the tiny, black seeds (known to the cognoscenti as ombrohydrochory). How cool is that?! #Droseraceae #dispersal #ombrohydrochory #carnivorousplant #Botany 🌾🧪🌱

#Drosera hyperostygma #Droseraceae! The Orange flowered Pygmy Sundews are a joy to see! These are common species in the Perth hills distinguished by their black stamen filaments and black egg shaped stigma for which they are named for! #WildOz

#Drosera filiformis var. filiformis has established itself in most of its neighbors’ pots. The volunteers seem to look better than the intentionally planted ones. 🙄

Photo of a stand of droseras. The erect linear leaves are covered with insect-trapping glandular hair. Young, emerging leaves are coiled like fiddleheads. Photo by Scott Zona CC BY-NC 2.0.
Emerging fern leaves are rolled up lengthwise & are called fiddleheads. A few Angiosperms also have this kind of ptyxis, called circinate. The sticky, linear, insect-trapping leaves of Drosera tracyi have circinate ptyxis. #ptyxis #morphology #Droseraceae #Botany #PlantScience 🌾🧪🌱
