snap em up!!!
I have some D. Filiformis seedlings that would be willing to trade for a couple of leaf cuttings from your Big Vigorous, we each pay our own postage. Of course we'd need to wait on the cuttings until Spring when it comes out of dormancy and it grows some new, healthy leaves.

They're a temperate sundew, the first temperates I was able to germinate. Being temperates, they'll do best outdoors and need a dormancy period. Since you already have a VFT, these will be happy outside with it.
If you're interested, keep in touch and we'll make it happen.

The spring/early summer might be a better time to ask this question as many begin to re-pot or seeds are sprouting.
Seems like (some, not all) VFT have seed pods ready in the June/July time frame.

I'm having a sale on large and small sarracenia divisions. Perfect for anyone trying to increase their collection and not break the bank. Check my feedback.

This Forum does have a Seed Bank.
There is no cost for the seeds.
You can request one package a month.
You send an SASE (Self Addressed Stamped Envelope) to me.
I pop a pack of seeds in the return envelope, and mail it back to you.
Your total cost is two envelopes and two stamps.

Growing CP from seed, especially free seed, is a good way to zero in your growing techniques.

You've been a member for over a year so you can request any seeds.
But I suggest starting with the easier ones, Class Zero or Class One.
There's a link to the Seed Bank in my signature and also in the "Useful Links" dropdown menu.

Good growing,
Mike
