A beautiful sight! If you don't mind sharing, are they under lights or in the greenhouse (or both)?

...here's what you do....open up 'Brad's Cobra Shop' in the spring. There goes the stratify Cobra seeds theory right out the window. Nice growing!

Congrats on the sprouts Brad, little cobras love to be fertilized.
Experimental evidence by a friend (and ocps member) and by myself this fall have convinced me to change my mind about the need to cold stratify Darlingtonia seed for succesful germination. I don't want to hijack this thread so I'll be posting a new thread on the subject soon.

Its hard to beat any sort of natural spectrum especially when its supplemented. I presently have some growing indoors under lights and they appear slightly leggie than yours Planted Oct 25th).
roraima, I look forward to the "strat vs non-strat" thread! H20 and I were GA3'n Sarrs seed on Nov 25 and we threw some Darlingtonias in the potion just for fun and they started sprouting this week. Is faster better in the long run, time will tell...

Thanks!, I did the same test with Cephalotus seeds this year, some seeds from the flower stalk got no strat and others did. Results will follow on a separated thread...
