Just maybe :D
 
Looks like seeds... congrats! :woot:
 
I see a bulge! It looks like success to me!
 
Me too, but afraid to jinx myself LOL
 
Self pollination or cross?
 
Congrats, Butch!
 
Wow, I didn't realize Heli flowers were so pretty.
 
Butch, congratulations. Certainly looks like seed to me . . .

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...

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 ;)
