Those are some very nice seedlings DB. How long have you been growing sarracenia from seed?

Thanks a bunch. I've been growing them from seed for six years and growing them in gardens for the better part of 15 years. Hope to see more of your seedlings soon. I'll keep posting some photos too as they grow.

I'll post some more pics tomorrow. Mine are nowhere near as pretty as yours though lol.

Give em time. They are slow growers. You have an impressive variety of seeds and I'm sure a ton of variation, I've seen your list. I'll try and pass on some more seed to folks interested this winter again.
