Default Anyone know what this carnivore is... I think it may be a Sundew type but not sure

I have been having a problem with gnats around my orchids and so when I saw this little carnivore in the garden center I thought it worth a try.

They also had some fly traps and pitchers, but this one seemed be already doing a good job catching little gnats like those I have a problem with. It also still looks quite pretty even when it has tiny flies all over it (it's more covered than you can tell from these pics).

I can tell it's already caught a few more since I got it, so I think it was a good choice.

Anyway, I was hoping one of our experts on Carnivorous plants could tell me what it is. The label just said 'Carnivorous plant' with generic info which covered the pitches and fly traps as well.

I think it's in the sundew type (Drosera?) but can any one confirm that, or even know a more exact ID.
