Drosera huegelii, the bold sundew,[1] is an erect perennial tuberous species in the carnivorous plant genus Drosera that is endemic to Western Australia. It grows in sandy soils in winter-wet depressions and margins of swamps and occurs along the south-west coast of Australia. D. huegelii produces small, bell-shaped leaves along an erect stem that can be 10–50 cm (4–20 in) tall. White to cream-coloured flowers emerge from June to September.[1][2]
D. huegelii was first described and named by Stephan Endlicher in his 1837 publication Enumeratio plantarum.[3]
