Hey everyone,
I just collected a ton of Drosera seeds, and will be listing most of them for giveaway.
Here are the rules that everyone has to read before putting their name down.
1. You may only sign up for one LIMITED variety, and one normal variety.
If all the LIMITED varieties have been taken, you may sign up for 3 species total.
2. With your SASE, you must include your forum name along with the 2 (or 3) Drosera species you want. My address is listed below.
3. NO PMS PLEASE. If you need to contact me, please send a message to sundewman(at)yahoo.com --- replace (at) with @.
4. send the sase asap, unless you don't mind waiting up to 2 weeks before I send it back. (After June, I will be back at school).
5. USA only please.
6. If you are attending the North-Central/midwest CP gathering, I will be bringing most of these, so don't worry about saving a slot.

Wow Aaron. You really outdid yourself with this one. Thanks for offering all these to the community here.

Wow, that D. oblanceolata of yours is gorgeous. No surprise it was the first to have all the slots filled (curse me for not checking terraforums online at work sooner, curses *angry fist shake* :) hahah) Thanks for the super Sase selection. I had quite the time narrowing it down to what I wanted (well to be truthful “wanted”=”any” while “requested”=2) Thanks again.
 
You're welcome!
i highly doubt I'll be able to do something like this again in the near future, but hopefully i can still have smaller giveaways.
I will hopefully have more seed of D. oblanceolata available in the near future. It is definitely a beautiful plant.

Yeah, I was a bit bummed to have missed that one. Is it tropical?

Same here.


Thanks a ton Aaron. My SASE is going out tomorrow morning. :)
 
Wow. Talk about a logistical nightmare! You are pretty awesome, thanks so much man!
 
yes, D. oblanceolata is a tropical/subtropical plant. It is growing in the tub next to my D. capensis 'Red' and D. nidiformis, so if you have a healthy D. capensis, you can grow this plant with ease.

I don't think I know what I got myself into quite yet....can't wait to be drowned in SASEs!
 
I plan to be at the North-Central/midwest CP gathering later this month, I hope there are a few seeds left by then.

I got mine yesterday! At first I thought, who sent me a letter? That handwriting looks just like my own! Then I remembered. A true senior moment, at the ripe age of 22. Thanks so much!

i still have to send the envelope... how long will the seeds be good?
 
  • #16
Glad they made it! Now I'll just have to wait for germination reports :)
awgaupp- no rush. the seeds are being stored in the fridge at the "ideal" 4 degrees C temperature. I know people have had reports of sundew seed lasting 10+ years in the fridge. I'm sure you'll be able to get the sase to me by then, though ;)

Actually, ill get it out soon
