Hey all! This is my first time successfully stratifying and germinating Sarracenia!!! I got the seeds from a giveaway by Dionae; shout out to ya' Dionae, tell me what ya' think!!!

I got two crosses! The first batch is Open Pollinated seeds.

I'm guessing that there is some purpurea or psittacina genes in there.

Thanks Dionae!! They are looking great!

The second batch of seeds(I stratified them and germinated in two batches, in case I fudged the first time) were removed from strat almost two weeks early due to some technical issues. I hope they germinate as well as the first batch!

Thanks! I've only seen Sarracenia seedlings on Dionae's thread on growing them from seed, this is the first time I've ever successfully germinated them and I'm really excited!!

My little seedlings are looking great. I've decided NOT to skip dormancy for this batch and have had them outdoors for a good long while.

Here's what they look like.

Now, some of the seedlings were lost but the ones that are still here are the fittest of the bunch!
