I see a bulge! It looks like success to me!

Me too, but afraid to jinx myself LOL

Self pollination or cross?

Butch, congratulations. Certainly looks like seed to me . . .

Thank you my friend, I hope so.... they will make good NASC material me thinks

Woot Woot Woot. Time will tell. Might be able to see other outward signs of pollination, if there are any. The sarracenia flowers sort of change a little but hard to really quantify the changes. I have had one case where the ovary grew and there was only one seed inside...

 

[Av8tor1]

well the ovary is definitely swelling up.... fingers crossed

 

[Av8tor1]

well the wait is over, noticed the ovary cracking open today....

harvested seed!!!!

Thanks for looking,
Av

That sure is a thing of beauty! Great work Av8tor!

 

[zlookup]

now to wait to see the progress of their germination/growth

 

[Av8tor1]

ty ty ty,

I noticed they are mighty tender fresh out of the ovary, next time im going to let them sit for a few days to harden prior to handling.

keep an eye out for a few to find their way to a giveaway
