I'm in love. I have leaf cuttings of my VFTs; except for: Scarlatine, Coquillage, and 'La Grosse à Guigui'. I have my nice clone of Dionaea M. 'Sawtooth' available, some seed grown VFTs, and a VERY nice vigorous binata clone. PM me! Looking for around around a sandwich size bag to a quart. More is better! Thank you!

VFTs willing to trade below:

Check Meadowview Biological Research Station, they sell it for a decent price. You may even get some Sarr seedlings as hitchhikers.

Everything happens for a reason. Sometimes the reason is that I make bad decisions.

Which is why it may be difficult to trade. Most people won't trade semi-expensive moss for cuttings, seed grown typicals, or a binata. You may have to up your end of the bargain.

How soon do you need the moss? Just wondering.

Etsy and ebay usually have people that are selling sphagnum moss for decent prices ($8-15 sometimes). Don't know if that's too expensive for you or not.

I occasionally have to trim back my sphagnum moss. It grows like weeds for me, and will choke out other plants if I don't. I wouldn't say it's "pure" though, as there is some star moss that grows in with it, depending on the conditions. I use the trimmings to propagate cuttings from other plants. If I don't have any cuttings, I usually just compost it. I may need to hold onto it next time.
