User's notes

Guessing that it's some sort of sundew, Sticky to touch. Had white flowers on stems coming from middle of each plant. Was located in a damp boggy area that had fire damage around it. Maybe Drosera Capensis Alba but thats not showing up on the pop out box for Droseras,

Wow, I have never seen this species in flower and not for want of trying. https://apps.lucidcentral.org/plants_se_nsw/text/entities/drosera_binata.htm
