I recently picked up a few new plants and I noticed one had a hitchhiking sundew in the corner. I am mostly a temperate grower so i am just trying to figure out if this is a D.spatulata or D.rotundifolia.

Bonus points if you can identify which cultivator of VFT!

Thanks for the help!

Happens to me sometimes too.

It's a bit too small to ID, but if I would have to, I'd also guess D. spatulata.

It is a little to young for a positive ID, but I'm pretty certain you can rule out Rotundifolia. Even at very young stages the Rotundifolia has a distinct leaf shape, which does not match that.

I'd go with spatulata cuz they're common weed sundews.

Sounds like the concensus is that it is a D.spatulata. I picked it out of the container and placed it in its own seedling tray so I don't forget about it during dormancy. While I was poking around I also found a baby VFT in the corner of the pot, not sure if it formed off a broken leaf or it was just a seed that fell into the container at some point but moved him to his own tray also.

Thanks for the help identifying the sundew!

Added some updated pictures as it is much larger now. I'm still guessing spatulata.
