Hello Friends,
I have ~30 seeds laying around all packed up. I want it to go to some use. The seed is from plants that were originally from Bonnie Johnson's family property in Alaska. I have no clue where that is. If he'll tell you where his property is then you have full location data. The seed is from 10/2009 but its been stored in the fridge and it germinates quite readily. The plants are nice. Stratify in damp LFSM before sowing.

This is a limited offer as I only have 1 packet available. I ship it to you. If you win you must PM me your address.

I want to give this seed to an experienced grower that will appreciate it and pass it on when the time comes. Growers that live in a warm climate probably won't get the seeds. If you are a friend or I have traded with you before you may have an unfair advantage. If you feel that you qualify, please post below. I will chose one of the posters to send the seed to.

On May 16th I will chose the winner.

GOOD LUCK!

You are out. (sorry!) From what I can see, you grow nothing but tropical sundews and this isn't exactly teaching material.

Whatev.. I guess I should update my growlist. I've already got this sp. from a local LFS bog anyways.
 
I'm quite sure I am eligible for receiving seeds from below the border. No problem with phyto or cites I'm certain.
I am in Canada, so I live in a relatively cold climate, it snowed yesterday :P
I grow rotunds, anglica's, intermedia's, they go dormant by mid november here.
I've been growing and researching cp's for two years now.

I'd only ask for 5-7 seeds.

Oh; so now we want to divide the packet up do we? :0o:

That's a possibility!

Maybe there will be two winners!

What IS it with D. rotundfolia/intermedia from cold environments that make it so desirable?
 
tolerance! one word! lol
some warmer temperate species like capillaris and more southern rotund varieties just dont like my winters ;)
