Doesn't look like it. What species of Drosera were they supposed to be?

Yeah, those don't look like anything I've seen before.

They said drosera capensis but seems like its not

Yeah, I'd plant that in a pot of basic peat moss and nothing fancy. Those are awfully big.

Hey your fine the reason this forum exist is for questions Theres a seed bank here were you can get all kinds of free seeds, and only pay for postage. Sphagnum and distilled water should work if those are genuine Drosera seeds.

Those are definitely not Drosera capensis seeds.
Here is alink to the ICPS Drosera Seed Image page: http://carnivorousplants.org/about/stor ... SeedImages
Scroll down to the desired image and click.
Drosera capensis seeds are tiny!

Speaking of the seed bank lol there he is. I second hitting up the seed bank. They're going to be what they're supposed to be. I'd also report the seller and leave a very negative review so hopefully noone else gets scammed like you did.

The link in my post was to the International Carnivorous Plant Society.
They have a seed bank but it's members only and they sell it.

The link to our seed bank here is under the "USEFUL LINKS" button, third selection from top.

There is also a link to our seed bank in my signature, at the bottom of my post.
Our seed is given to members for no charge.
You send me a self-addressed-stamped-envelope.
I put a seed package in the inner envelope and mail it back to you.

We work it on a Pay It Forward principle.
Today, you take from the bank.
When you can, you donate your extra seed to the bank.
Everybody wins and it builds a sense of community here.
