And somehow, I have this thing growing in my seedling pots:
Mystery Plant

I don't know what it is - I don't even have any plants that look like it!  I really have no idea how it got there.  Anyway, there are about 50 or so VFT seedlings out of an original 148.  I lost a lot of them because this is my 1st time trying this, and I didn't foresee all the problems that I had (mainly flooding of the trays, so a bunch floated away!).

So there ya go

(looks to me like your VFTs could use more light..are they getting any direct sun?)

nevermind..

The sundew seedling kinda looks like spatulata but there are many sundews that look like spatulata so it could be many things. You'll just have to wait and see. ^_^

Well, the VFTs that are already full-grown I've had for months.  I recently realized that they weren't getting enough sun, so I just moved them here, like, 4 days ago and they haven't quite perked up yet.

The seedlings are my new addition, not the grown plants

Your sundew looks like a D. Filiformis or some other type maybe?...
Itsn't it cool how these sundews pop out of nowhere?

BTW- very nice plants
 
Such a nice family! The mystery sundew is too young to really determine.
 
not bad at all im getting some seed from the ICPS, and hopefully they'll be ready for sewing by march (I also got S. Oreo, and Alabamensis)
 
Great looking plants and seedlings! Congrats on all of them coming up!
