Nepenthes boschiana Pollen Available Soon

I have an inflorescence starting on my male N.boschiana, pollen should be ready to harvest in about a month. I would prefer that the pollen be used on a female N.boschiana or to make potentially interesting primary hybrids. Standard 50/50 split on all seeds produced.

I will bump this thread as the pollen gets closer to being ready.
 
Well, I'm a bit disappointed. My female N. boschiana blooms frequently, so I went out and took a look. Unfortunately, there is only one inflorescence, and it's too far along.???
 
The first flowers should be open in the next week or so. Since you have females, maybe I should just dry the pollen and send it to you. You can just pop it in the freezer until you need it.

Sounds like a plan...
 
Cool. I'll give you a heads up and grab your address when it's ready.
 
Pollen available now if anyone else needs any. Plenty to go around.
