Didn't go to the plant nursery for a while, and my parents went there today and they brought me this drosera that was sitting there for a while (and me that used to go there every couple of weeks, could have got it in better shape ) It seems some petiolaris complex carniflora mongrel to me, and still there is green so there is a chance it may recover, or just dormant? I don't know much about petiolaris complex, so any advices on this one I'll appreciate (lighting, watering, conditions for winter and that kind of stuff)

At the moment the only petiolaris-complex sundew in the Carniflora inventory is D. paradoxa, and it looks like you've got it. It doesn't look to good though. Bright light, high temperature might help it.

ivopereira,
Your plant is sending out a flower spike. It would probably be best not to let it flower, while in the condition it is in. Unless you have another petiolaris plant you want to cross it with.
Take care, Steve

Other than the brown tips, the rest of the plant looks to be ok. I think that so long as the conditions are right and the roots are healthy your plant should come back to health.
Dave.
