I have seeds of Smoke bush , what sould I do to have sucess in germinating them ? do they need scarification or stratification ? what about temperature and light ? thanks

Hi, this is my first post here. I met bugweed on another forum and he told me about this one. I am already in so many others, I don't know how active I will be here since it is so huge, it would be hard to keep up with all the posts! I have a packet of about 20 darlingtonia seeds that I would...

Ok guys, now that you heard my bizzare story of intermedia flowering in a fridge, it just brought me another one. This monday, I planted about... ummm 100-150 of its seeds so that I'd have a forrest. Everywhere I looked it says they need cold stratification for 6 weeks to germinate. Well I...

Thanks to Bugweed, I have about 60 (yes 60) baby VFT's shedding their seeds. Whats really cool is that I gave them NO cold stratification, just spread them over wet peat and forgot about 'em. So far I see about three that could be Red dragons but I'm not sure yet. Thanks alot Bugweed!! -Rail

Hey guys/gals, I've got some Ceph seeds down in the fridge for 2-3 months of cold stratification. I'm wondering how often i should mist them. There are approx 15 in this tray: Thx for your help. These forums save lives...literally, Zac

I have some fresh D.filiformis ssp filiformis seeds for trade. I should have enough for 2 trades at least I am hoping to trade them for some sort of Drosera seeds, ideally something that is not any kind of D.capensis (already have 3 different ones and that's good enough) I would be interested...

Hello, I just received D.capensis, D.burmannii, and B.liniflora seed from some very generous individuals at the trading post. This will be my first attempt to grow drosera and byblis from seed.   I've done some reading on seed sowing but would like some information on soil mixes, seed...

I know it requires a cold strat, but I have also heard it takes a double freeze? Also I have heard they need an acid wash, what would I use to do this? Anyone germinated these before and/or have any ideas.

A little while ago I asked questions about germinating Sarracenia seeds that I had in the fridge for 3 months before attempting to sow. I received a variety of opinions as to what went wrong or how to do redo stratification. I have another idea. What say I take the existing seeds and their...

I am offering D. peltata seed. Stratification should be 3 weeks. Grow as a tuberous 'dew. Buyer pays shipping. Seed can be shipped internationally excluding certain countries (Iraq, Iran, North Korea, China, etc.).

This consists of a pot full of cp mix with about 100 D. stenopetala seed sown on top. This Drosera needs 2 months stratification minimunm and has already had 3 weeks. It needs cool weather (like england) to grow because it is an alpine plant from Australia (or is it NZ?). Any way grow it like D...

One pack of D. anglica seed. Has been stored properly. Will need cold/moist stratification for approximately 5 weeks but best to check around for optimal stratification period. Bubble mailer and postage included. Starting bid $2.
