That's the nice thing about growing plants from seeds.

...link not working for me. Either way, it would not be a true B52. Vegetative propagation is the only way to ensure true genetics and bloodlines. Seed propagation does not guarantee that and therefore you could not label a plant grown from B52 seeds a B52. Having said all that, some of my seed grown Dionaea have larger traps than my B52's so I totally second Hackerberry's post. Cheers!
