Ok.  I need some help.  I just "weeded" my terrarium...and now I have more drosera than I know what to do with.  I didn't want to just throw them away, so I packed up four packages ready to mail on Monday.  I need four volunteers to take on these poor, homeless 'dews

.

The first four people to post to this thread by Sunday night at 9PM New York time will receive a mystery package a few days later.  Please 1) post your claim and 2) pm me your address.  there is no shipping cost, I am going to pay it.  

The types you might receive include capensis 'typical', 'alba' (or albino, or white flower, whatever you want to call it), spatulata and I think there's one adelea in there somewhere.  They are in various stages of develpement, some have already produced seeds, and some are the seedlings of those seeds.  I am not taking requests for types, since they are already packed.  I just need four addresses.....


READY, GO!
 
I'll will take some off of your hand. I just got a new mini greenhouse and I need to fill it up. Thanks for being so giving. I will pm you my addresss.

I would like to add my name to the hat please! I grow mostly sarracenias and would like to expand my collection. I would be happy to send you some s. rosea seedlings as a thank you.

Pressure, Snowyfalcon, Neprick and Sarraceniaobsessed, I will send out the packages on Monday morning.

Hey Pressure...

Ok I received them yesterday(Thursday). Thanks schloaty! They are all good. I can make out three spathulatas, a few adelaes, because my adelae is making babies and the look the same. That is about all I can tell. Maybe the rest are capensis.

Thanks again!

Pressure,
Excellent! I'm glad they arrived in good condition. I didn't pay attention to what I shipped to whom....I don't think you got "a few" adelea, because if I remember correctly I only had ONE in the "give away" pile....BUT I could be wrong....Guess you'll have to wait and see!

The round, flat ones are more likely either spatulata (more spoon shaped leaves) or alicaie (leaves shaped like long tounges).

Got mine on Thursday, in good health. Thank you again. I am potting up some nepenthes. Need to get them in good health for trading.

Thanks man, got them Thursday, but didn't have time to pot them till Saturday. They look good though and I think they will pull through.
