Hard to ID from Photo 1. Luckily the flower bud in photo 3 showed the hairy sepals (surrounding the petals) which are diagnostic.

Drosera hookeri was described after this sighting was uploaded. Nearly all sightings previously included in Drosera peltata will now be Drosera hookeri. The easiest diagnostic is that hookeri stays green while the basal leaves of peltata turn red. Hookeri is also more robust than peltata and the stems can branch. Peltata has unbranched stems.
