Drosera linearis
Also called Linear Leaved Sundew, Slender Leaved Sundew
Drosera linearis, commonly called the slenderleaf sundew, is a sundew found in the Great Lakes region of North America, in Canada and the United States, such as Michigan, and in Montana. It is usually no more than four inches tall.
Drosera linearis range is centered around the great lakes region with scattered populations in western Canada and the maritime provinces. It is rare over most of its range, and only locally common in specific habitats. It is found in remote peat-lands in the northwestern and north central part of Minnesota; where it grows in minerotrophic water originating from groundwater or nearby uplands. Because of its rareness and its restrictive habitats, it is listed as a threatened species in Minnesota.
