Tiny Beauty

Drosera pulchella on my windowsill in Hayes.  7 May 2013.

This exotic bloom is a miniature, only 12 mm across.  It's a Sundew from south-western Australia.  The whole plant that it belongs to is only  2 cm across.  I posted a photo of it here:

Here's another shot showing the slender flower stalk and the rosettes of the parent plant.  As you can see, it's an insect-eater, though because of its size it can only catch very small insects.  It gets the occasional fruit fly from the kitchen.
