I was looing for this one ...never knew people in here had them if you want you can toss in a few of these as well no worries about not having this one they are fincky I heard

I have had a few (4-5) for a almost 2 years. Nice and pink, very hungry. The odd thing is that though they have flowered many times for me, I've had little success with the seed. From what I understpod, burmanii can be kinda weedy, but I haven't experienced this.
I'm drying out a flower stalk right now, I may send some your way, if I get a good amount, but I can't guarantee its a viability.

that's ok Lloyd sent me burmanni and indica seeds....both are like weeds and when it seeds it gets everywhere, neither made it so I guess I dodged a bullet there! not sure if the humpty doo are like it tho

Lol! Well, I'm hoping for success with this batch, as my colony of humpty doos is slowly dying off. I have one young and healthy one, one old nice one but showing the signs, and two that are just straight up crapping out.

I don't really have any sundew seeds currently, because I cut most of my flower stalks, but I can let a few grow if interested. Guaranteed flowers: D. spatulata - constantly D. capensis - constantly D. natalensis - somewhat frequently D. venusta - somewhat frequently I'd be fine with you just sending a SASE. Time for me to pay it forward. Let me know if you're interested and I'll let the flowers grow. Josh I am interested in all of the above (and the burmannii as well if that works out, willing to give questionable viability a shot). Let me know when and where to send the SASE.

I have some D. capensis regular and "alba" seeds left over from some that "ng" sent me, and I might have some D. indica "scented flower" seeds in a month or so when the pods mature (although they don't smell like anything to my old nose). All 3 of those can give you a mature plant in about 6-9 months. The indica is an annual and the longest I've kept it alive in cultivation was 2 years, by constantly cutting off the flower stalks. I also have some S. purpurea seeds from Newfoundland. Send me your address in a PM and I can mail some out to you.

So the burmanii seed is out of the question, as my wife accidently threw out the drying flower stalks. On a more positive note, my D. binata is gonna flower. Some of the cultivated varieties produce unviable seed, but since I grew mine from seed, I'm assuming I'm good? I haven't tried, it's the first time I get a flower stalk out of them as they're younger plants. Two venustas are gonna flower and a bunch of spatulata and capensis as usual.

Been there I had sarrecina purpera (NL Pitcher Plant seeds,) one week left in the fridge to stratify and my mother decides to defrost the fridge and threw out close to 20 seeds! I got a few sowed and are outside but I am not expecting to much but hope something pops

My friend Denny will have some neps, sarracenias, and cephalotus available in about a month. If you're interested I'll check and see what he'll be selling them for. I plan to drop by the Island in about a month (to Cumberland)
