Drosera identification help

The sundews pictured below were volunteers from a trade a few years ago.

This is in the spring after a late winter repotting. Even though it was setback from the repotting, it still had to flower... As I recall, the roots on this were very long and strong (but about 1/3 as thick as a D. capensis or D. binata).

Here's the flower it sent up (one of several).

Here's a more recent photo showing the colors from the sun (taken after a strong rain threw some sand up).

And here's a larger sister plant growing where it doesn't get as much sun as the 1st one (apologies for focus).
 
D. spatulata. I don't know the form but I have a couple also. (my only surviving spats.
 
It isn't Drosera spatulata it is Drosera aliciae.
 
It's D.aliciae. Try to see & compare.

Thanks folks - I appreciate the help with the ID.
