Hello. I have some seeds of New Zealand sundews and one Australian sundew that I'd like to trade. I can only trade for other CP seeds, and only certain ones, as my country has restrictions on this sort of thing. I have limited numbers, so first in first served. The Drosera Arcturi was harvested...

Forecast calls for a high of -1 and a low of -7 celcius. My VFTs are in 6" diameter plastic pots outside. Should I put them in plastic bags to shield them from winds? There is also light snow forecast one night. Thanks for all your help so far. Adam

I posted a similar topic in CPUK forums. Howdie folks! A couple of years ago I was forced to get rid of my collection of CPs due to space (I had to move into an apartment for a while due to relocation) and there was nobody that I knew locally that could care for them correctly. I wisely sent...
