These are my favorite for quite some time. I got some gamea from a friend. These are the only two to live.

Drosera Citrina var Citrina.

Drosera hamiltonii. Received thru trade a few months ago, settled in quite nicely and seems to greatly enjoy my outdoor conditions, especially now. Love how those leaves unfurl!

If you have extra of this one in the future, let me know, I'd be interested in trading for some.

As others have said ... depends somewhat on the time of year.

I do like capensis ... common though it is. A durable plant able to put up with less than great conditions.

Around midsummer, I'd have to say D. hartmeyerorum. Looks great all dewed up when the sun hits it.

This time of year, probably my D. pulchella. Cute little plants that flower frequently.

Blessed are the "cracked" ... for it is they who let in the light.

I have rare plants and my favorite is still Drosera capensis red variety. D. capensis is already great but the red variety is red and has larger flowers.

I'll have to take a photo of it, but we have a 2" pot PACKED ful to the brim of D. Spatulata 'Lantau Island" seeds from another member here that are absolutely to die for right now - that is the kids favorite, mine is our HUGE D. Tracyii that we have dubbed "Big Tracy" shes a nappy headed clump of dead leaves for the winter but here she was in May of this year shortly after waking up. she got mid-summer:

I think I took an updated shot but I need to upload it if so I'll edit this one later. after I snap a photo of the lil 2" pot!

From day to day, my favorite Sundew changes.

Today my Drosera cuneifolia is looking really nice.

This is a species you don't see too often in cultivation.

It has wider leaves than D. aliciae and is considerably larger than D. admirabilis or D. sp Floating.

It just ate a fungus gnat this morning.

That’s a tough question. I’ve got a lot of sundews and they’re all great. These are just my indoor ones:

But, right now, my favorite is probably Drosera ‘Anemone’. It’s a beautiful little cultivar that grows fast and easily and looks great! Mine is still a bit small, but here it is:
