Looking for Darlingtonia

Clint

Stay chooned in for more!
Hey guys. I'm looking for a Darlingtonia. I could never grow one since it's so hot, and now that I'm growing in the basement I can. PM me and we can work out a dealio :)

No teeny tiny babies please :) But also no monster-sized 2 foot tall plants please!
 
Offer is still open so others can PM me, too. I have Sarracenia and Nepenthes.

Don't we all...mine keep burning. :-(
 
The mountain populations require more in the way of dormancy - longer, colder. They're used to getting snowed under at times.
 
**** is carrying them (Mountain Variety) now, but they are only seedlings.

Yeah I was looking for something about... 2 or 3 times the size of one of those dinky lowes cube ones.

I'm not even gonna say it but you know what I'm thinking.

Yeah I just got from here a week ago. My whole pot is full of seedlings. They're still going good in the sun and 85 hotness right now. If they need a colder dormancy then I'm in the right place too I guess. This is the only place though that has the mountain from what I've seen. Grab em up.

The seeds I got from the ICPS seedbank are from Sierra Co, NV which are the mountain populations.

With luck maybe in 4 or 5 years my plants will be almost the size of the cube of death ones.
 
I don't snitch.

Seeds are better though. Maybe it's me but I like them young so you can see it grow up and all that. Maybe that's why I keep buying seeds. Plus if you do it right you get more for less.

In spite of being tissue cultured and neglected, as long as you know what you're looking for, in terms of reasonable health, it's a pretty good purchase. Just avoid putting them near streams!

Best one I have .. it is a lowes cube, but a large cube grown up for a cpl months.
 
I don't find Darlingtonia all that attractive; however, I'm sure at some point a little later on I will get attracted to their beauty. Are you looking to get a whole arsenal, Clint? You want tons? lol.

I don't snitch.

Then don't complain.

xvart.
 
Well not TONS lol. I figured a few could go in the basement and a few on our creek up here at the cabin.
