Hi guys! I just received some seeds from John Brittnacher over at the ICPS, one of which is a packet of Drosophyllum. I have literally spent almost 10 solid hours over the weekend reading every last scrap of forum conversation about its germination, the ICPS grow guides, and every word written...
anyone know if the seeds will produce similar plants to the mom i self pollinated it and did keep it covered all summer so im sure these seeds are from it s own pollen ,
What will we get?
Will they germinate at all ?

I gave the last of my CPs to one of the NASC folks a couple years ago and it's been a long time since I posted here, but I'm drawn back because my wife found an envelope of S. rubra 'Red Dip Lip' x self seeds. Unfortunately, the envelope was dated 2010 and I didn't misplace it in the fridge -...
Hi there everybody! I'm very happy to find this forum out there and can't wait to become more evolved in it. I currently have a little setup with my old reef light.
So yesterday I planted some 80 different Venus fly traps
So today I received some more seeds and they were my sundews.
I got close...
Hey all, been a long time since posting here. Just wanted to say ive acquired a variety of pitcher plant, VFT and sundew seeds.. Plan on starting a bog. Got a tub i plan to put a plastic sun roof on; going to burn holes in the side so it can breath. Im gonna fill it with sphagnum and top it...
First up is nidiformis, at least that's what the seed packet said :lol: Little guys took darn near six months to germinate.
Next is a mystery dew. The leaf came labled in a trade. I promptly lost the lable. I emailed the giver and asked, and deleted all my email in error. As of now I...

This pot of drosos are looking a little messy, but it is flowering again this year.

Here are a couple seedlings from 4 seed dropped into a pot outside not meant for drosos and left outside forgotten and exposed to the elements all winter. Hmmm, I think I will try...
Greetings all,
I am procrastinating right now and avoiding responsibility for just a few more minutes so I thought I would make a list of some of the carnivorous plants I think are best to start with- a long with some comments. This list is meant to be pretty general and is perhaps USA centric...
I'm receiving 500+ ventricosa seeds and a few other hybrid seeds (ventricosa x ephippiata and maybe another, I forget). I've gotten Nepenthes seeds to germinate before and I have learned quite a bit from that. I had a few misc. questions...
1. About how many seeds can I sow per square inch...
Anybody use tebuconazole on seeds? The Sarr seeds I treated with this stuff during stratification didn't germinate very well at all. Wondering if my problem might have been the fungicide.
Tuberous sundew D. orbiculata. Not a very large species but quite dramatic and very hard to find. I started mine from seed years ago and while they flower and make seed they never seem to propagate themselves with extra tubers. This species is also difficult to germinate requiring a hot...
For bid - 3 Drosera hilaris seedlings potted and rooted in a 2" cup. The largest of these plants is approximately 3/4" (17 mm) across and about 4 months old. This species is tricky to germinate from seed.
US bidders only - my apologies to others.
Winning bidder will pay $6.55 for Priority...
Drosera trinervia "Stormsvleikloof, RSA" seeds (at least 30 seeds)
This is an annual offering. As long as my colony of these plants continues to produce seed in time for the auctions I will offer them.
This is one of the easiest of the winter growing South African Drosera to cultivate...
Up for auction is a packet of 20+ D. cuneifolia seeds from Table Mountain, South Africa. These seeds germinate much quicker and have a higher germination rate than the Silvermine location. GA3 treatment is not necessary. Seeds were harvested summer of 2012 and have been kept refrigerated...
Up for auction is a packet of 50+ D. cuneifolia seeds from Silvermine, South Africa. Please be aware that these seeds are difficult to germinate. They can take upwards of three months to germinate. GA3 treatment did not make a difference in germination time for me. It still took three months...
Hello everyone,
First of all, great forum. I come here often and enjoy all the tutorials and pictures, it's very interesting and helpful.
Ok, so I'm in kind of a predicament. I bought an aquarium where I am currently keeping a couple species of Drosera seedlings, attempting to germinate some...
sooo...this morning, i went into the room i keep aome of my plants in, to turn on their light, just like every morning. i turn on the light, and look at the pots. (i have three pots under this light, one with a little cape sundew(which i thought was dead, but apparently the roots were still...
Hello all. I hope someone can sway me one way or the other. I am expecting both D peltata and D auriculata seeds sometime in the next week or so. I have had success with peltata tubers, but never tried any tuberous Drosera seeds. I live in Southern California and temps are still quite on the...
I've been around the board for a little while now, but I haven't posted any pictures of my CPs to this point. I've mostly only kept temperate species, mostly Sarrs to this point, but I traded with another member here about a month ago and got some really cool Neotropical species. They're...
