Hello guys,
I am interested in obtaining any tropical Drosera seeds via SASE that are easy to grow indoors. I am trying to focus on Drosera since they are so cool. My grow list has shrunk over the years due to the happenings of life. Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks

I just harvested a ton of D capensis white form and should have some red as well as natalensis coming up shortly.

Hey, I will have Dr. Indica, Burmanii, and Spatulata. Nothing really rare here but I have to say that Dr. Indica is one of my favourite CP's. It grows really fast, gets HUGE (compared to other Drosera) and is super low maintenance. It has outgrown all my other Sundew seedlings hundreds of times over and in the future I will definitely be planting them in larger than 5" pots as they are falling over and out of the ones they're in. PM me if you're interested. No guarantees on the seeds though as this will be my first time harvesting them. Cheers, Gabriel.

I harvest my seeds when the little stalk holding the lowest pod onto the scape turns yellow. In my mind, the yellowing means the plant is no longer channeling nutrients to feed seed development, so it's just a matter of the seeds drying. I cut the whole flowering stalk, invert it into a paper coin envelope and let the stalk dry for two weeks before discarding. The seeds will fall into the envelope as they dry.

I have indica now, and sessifolia and snyderi ripening right now. In about 3-4 weeks I imagine there should be plenty.

I fold a peice of square paper like i saw a guy on youtube do it works very well way better then putting them in little plastic bags which sometimes gets to be a pain to get the seeds out of there
