Description: There may be two separate plants here; a roundel with liquid-tipped spikes, and a leafy plant. They are both small & lay close to the ground. They appear to be carnivorous, though no dead insects were seen. If they are separate can you ID both?

Description: The flower and stem are about 30mm high. Hard to describe the habitat. Bit of everything really! (St. Kilda!). Quite a few of the leaf part around but this was the best of the two I found in flower.
