Family: Droseraceae (Sundew family)
Mid-Atlantic bloom time: June - Septembr
Roundleaf Sundew grows in bogs, marshes and fens and is one of the most widespread sundew species, with a circumboreal distribution. Its leaves are arranged in a basal rosette. Each leaf has glistening, sugary drops of mucilage covering its leaves to attract insects, which it then ensnares and digests. The white or pink flowers grow on one side of a single slender, hairless stalk that grows from the centre of the leaf rosette.
