Actually it isn't all that hard as tuberous Drosera go, and it's a very beautiful and rewarding species. Seed can be difficult to germinate, but it should happen as long as you get live seed. Finding a reliable source for seed would go far in that regard...most commrcial seed comes from Lowrie in Oz and it's hit or miss there, usually miss, in my experience, 'nuff said here 'bout that. I haven't had long term success with this species, but likely due to the so few sunny days here. Without a lot of energy the plants can't form the tuber needed to sustain the plant next season. But others might have a better chance. Getting a tuber will let you grow a nice plant first season, but unless the energy is there, it will return smaller and smaller. Since I am opposed to collecting wild material for resale, I won't deal with Lowrie, but others have had success with his tubers once they acclimate them to this hemisphere's seasons. Good luck with your quest!
