Calling all Sarracenia folks!
I'm trying to become one, and with the kind help of a member, my sarracenia collection has doubled. THANKS JBL. One of the sarracenia sent to me was an S minor that had 3 flower spikes. The plant was healthy enough so I pollinated all three flowers, but only two took. So I think anyway. The area in which the anthers were surounding is swelling. Since this will be my first capsules I assume those are it.
My question is when do I harvest the seed? I don't want to wait to long and have them naturaly dispurse. That will not be a horible thing, but I just want to sow a few of the seed for myself and then pay it forward to the forum with the extra, or like some calls it. The Tamlin effect! Great man! I am very interested in being an active member in the Tamlin army so harvesting seed would be the prefured thing to do. I don't want let them dispurse like I managed to do with an orchid capsule recently. So much for sending those seed to Troy meyers. Any who, thanks for the help!
