Following a prescribed burn in March, the Drosera binata in Budderoo National Park were induced to bloom en mass in December 2021. The burn cleared a creek gully of its heath understory, allowing light to hit the soil and break Drosera binata of its dormancy. The slopes draining to the creek were covered with thousands of large-sized ‘dichotoma’ form plants. A large proportion of specimens grew flowers, as fire signals to the species that the ground is bare and that their seedlings have a good chance to grow up before the understory chokes them of light.
