BobZ photographed areas where the Darlingtonia was used as a landscape plant. JLAP is talking about introducing this plant to a natural stream ecosystem. The water from the stream is flowing somewhere. I don't know exactly where JLAP is located other than that I recall somewhere east of the rockies. It is not a good idea to seed any area with non indigenous plant material. Darlingtonia is way out of range anywhere east of the rockies and the enironment described just might be "too" hospitable in that the roots of the plant would be constantly cooled. Just my opinion.
All of my Dalingtonia I moved across country from Seattle died during the first here. I even tried watering with RO ice cubes daily, but the heat overcame that. I now have some seeds thanks to wicked thistle. I am looking for a chiller.. I hope that works!
