This is the (100 km South of Port Hedland) location. I have yet to encounter other strains of this species currently being grown in cultivation.

And would you look at that, you’re the same person who helped me attain all these magnificent Byblis I believe that’s the same catalogue I saw posted online! So many varieties! Perhaps I’ll send Greg a message via FB (Meta?).

I found one of Lowrie’s most extensive catalogues released shortly before he passed away last year. This was the Byblis portion. Unfortunately there was only one B. pilbarana accession with accurate location data, although there are a few other strains on there as well.
Yes, Greg received some/all of Allen’s seed collection. I’m not sure if he’ll reopen a public catalog as he’s generally quite busy, but it might be worth a shot contacting him if you’re after something specific.
