Drosera love sun and water. You should have your plant in a saucer of water that is at least half the height of the pot its planted in and as much sun as you can give it. As you are in Idaho, I would recommend distilled water.

According to Amazon, it should be D. Spatulata (its spelled wrong on the website). They are incredibly hardy and you will have them sprouting up in every wet pot in your growing area.

D. Spatulata is a tropical sundew, that means they don't need a dormancy period. Find it a sunny window sill, keep it in a saucer of water and it will be one happy plant.
