Everyone claims something different, as does its habitat. Very tropic lowland/intermediate in nature though exposure may vary this, some people keep it hot, I keep it slightly on the cooler side, don't think it actually cares so long as NO TOUCHY.
 
In process of repotting all my surviving woollies (which, luckily, is most of them). Some have truly ridiculous flower stalks...
D. aff. paradoxa "N. of Drysdale River Station" by Hawken Carlton, on Flickr
Belongs to this little thing

Also repotted my hamiltonii. their ridiculousness is underground

And the tuberous sundews are finally starting to reassure me that I'm not completely failing with them

A hybrid that I've been trying to wait for flowers to photograph, but the stalks keep aborting

linearis back in bloom for their "winter round" of growing (they get double cycles every year here).

And "Andromeda" has begun going nuts

Crappy pics, but new blooms (plant went halfway dormant before blooming, oddly)
D. lanata "Northern Territory" by Hawken Carlton, on Flickr
This one did not appreciate repotting, but is beginning to return to former glory
D. falconeri x ordensis by Hawken Carlton, on Flickr
And made a PINK flower
D. falconeri x ordensis by Hawken Carlton, on Flickr
Still one of my fav hybrids, shortly before repotting
D. 'Childhood Wishes' by Hawken Carlton, on Flickr

And got the northern fils blooming again. Barely got lucky and crossed the last flower with one of the last from anglica Kanaele, hopefully it takes
D. filiformis Nova Scotia by Hawken Carlton, on Flickr
D. filiformis Nova Scotia by Hawken Carlton, on Flickr
Another oddball that got repotted
D. "Florida Giant" x sp. Lantau Island by Hawken Carlton, on Flickr
And a tuberous sundew that's reassurring me that I'm not a complete failure growing this group
D. tubaestylis by Hawken Carlton, on Flickr
 
 
A nice collection for just random shots. Nice to see that your tuberous and petiolaris 'dews are doing well. My filiformis (indoor, in the garage) are starting to sprout out now but yours are much further ahead.
 
Still struggling with Petiolaris, actually; some seem to enter a sort of half-dormant state but never go fully dormant, and seem to have problems when they do so whether I keep them moist or let them dry out. I've lost my Prison Tree derbyensis recently to this, and the larger of the two falconeri. Need to practice taking pullings so there are extra plants no matter what the original does...
 
I hear you. I struggled for years because the set-up needed to be successful with them here is so artificial. Fortunately, that doesn't translate to super-difficult but it is very different than I've done for other sundews. Growing highland Nepenthes would be much harder. Or you could live in Singapore and grow them on your apartment balcony. ;)

Desperately hoping this blooms this year:
D. cistiflora "salmon flower" by Hawken Carlton, on Flickr
The rest are a bit too new to expect that

D. cistiflora "Cream Flower, S. of Malmesbury" by Hawken Carlton, on Flickr
 
Your D. murfetii are looking good. Mine are on the move now, too. Good luck with the D. cistiflora flowers!
 
No cistiflora flowers, sadly (perhaps my conditions still aren't cool enough). Still hope for the late-growing violet one though
But I do have plenty of other things in full swing

Since this pic, that one climbing gracilis has shot up to almost 5 inches tall

D, spatulata "Ivan's 3-Way" white form by Hawken Carlton, on Flickr
 
I think there's something messed up with the latest bale of peat, because a lot of the sundews and Pinguicula have been acting somewhat unhappy particularly following repots...also if anyone has familiarity with destroying powdery mold-algaes that are resistant to everything I throw at it I'd love to know because I feel like that might help.
Luckily not all are being snooty right now
D. madagascariensis by Hawken Carlton, on Flickr
Particularly glad this one is not unhappy
D. hartmeyerorum by Hawken Carlton, on Flickr
Though it has aborted several flower stalks for no good reason
D. hartmeyerorum by Hawken Carlton, on Flickr
But, it has also just simultaneously thrown up about 5 stalks that are all healthy and blooming together
D. hartmeyerorum by Hawken Carlton, on Flickr
Definitely needs a soil wash

New hybrid debut
D. anglica (CA x HI) x intermedia AF by Hawken Carlton, on Flickr
Not hybrid, but a new spatulata I've finally repotted and listed...one that does not look or behave like most of my spatulata

D. spatulata "Ivan's 3-Way" white form by Hawken Carlton, on Flickr

Great stuff! D. anglica x intermedia is the most obscure natural hybrid. As yet not for certain identified in the wild and is un-named. I know one person in the UK searching for it. I hope more are. Would be a most sensational find. I look forward to more on your manmade hybrid and hopefully natural finds.

I expected my original spatulata 3-Way hybrid was recessive for white flowers but I never got any. Congrats.
 
Turns out I still have two different versions of anglica x intermedia; at some point a seedling of my old Roraima x Alakai cross bounded back under my nose, and it's starting to reach size again...twisted leaves and all that it had before.
 
For so long I've had as a reference pic my spat gympie looking very green. Nice to have one that's red now...
D. spatulata gympiensis by Hawken Carlton, on Flickr
Funky new hybrid
D. linearis x spatulata by Hawken Carlton, on Flickr
Unfortunately, I'm a little confused, because I could have sworn I made the cross with the Fraser Island spat, which has white flowers...and linearis has white as well...yet somehow this threw up pink

A needed replacement from @bluemax
