Drosophyllum catch bugs better than Drosera. Quantitatively speaking. Plus it's the carnivore most suited to your growing conditions, being that it's native to southern Spain.

Hmmm? I shall have to look at it, although its cultivation requirements seem a little precise for my taste.
Anyone know of any nice lowland Nerps with coloured pitchers?

What were you going to suggest about Drosophyllum?

Precise cultivation requirements aren't so tough to meet when you live where the plant is native to......

No, but if you read the cultivation requirements, they are very picky as to water levels etc, and the only thing that kills them faster than too much water is not enough.
