Subject: Pinguicula alpina and scented sundew flowers

Are any fellow carnivorous plant growers able to provide details on the
following two topics?

1. Does Pinguicula alpina occur in Greenland, or is Iceland the
westernmost outpost of this species?

2. Do Drosera with scented flowers (to the human nose) occur beyond
Australia and New Zealand? That is, is this phenomenon developed
outside of the tuberous, pygmy and t-form sundew groups?

Kind regards,

Robert Gibson
