does anyone have any big pink capensis cuttings, seeds, or plants that I could buy or trade?
Ive wanted to get this variety for a while

I'll have some in a few weeks/1 month.

Oh, it's a root cutting that has one bud.

I have a Big Pink clone I bought from Josh at Flytrap King.
I will send you a leaf cutting if you pay for shipping.
I'm in Milwaukee so it'll be too cold to mail a leaf cutting until early in May.
Drop me a PM in Spring to remind me.
I have a good memory, but it's very short.

Sent a PM. I should have a few leafs.

I can sell small plants of the true 'Big Pink' clone for $10 a piece.

At $10 how much would it come out to with shipping added? And that is bare root right?

From my understanding there are no Not-true big pink clones. Since this cultivar cannot be grown from seeds. Seeds from big pink will only result in Capensis Red or capensis Albino. So all of the Big Pink clones are probably clones of the original cultivar. Is this true???

I think so

Then why are there Big Pinks in the seedbank?

I don't think there are any that just say Big Pink. usually its a cross, not the cultivar. and if it does say Big Pink selfed, that just means a BP self pollinated itself.
i think
I also just realized my username initials are also BP.

With the selfed ones in the seed bank you will more than likely just get reds and albas with possibility of getting one that has traits of a big pink. But these wouldn’t be labeled as real cultivar basically would be labeled a typical. It’s Gotta be a clone from one that is an actual “big pink” cultivar like from propagation. Leaf cuttings and what not. If that makes sense

Yes, bare root. Shipping is an extra $9 and a heat pack (if necessary) is $4. Live arrival guaranteed.
