Everything says "not available for coming months", so you try to add it to your cart and it says the following:

That two pack is unavailable

The one I selected is
You have to search through and see what's available for shipping

If you look on my pic I posted you will see it says available for shipping

It's tough to get exactly what one wants from aw all in one shot

I think it's taken me a dozen orders to get most of what I wanted from him over the years

That's why the prices of aw plants in the states are much higher than what Andreas asks

Oh wow, I see that. Yes. So are all the ones that I'm seeing the same in spite of the gross green color of the pitchers? I want a classic Hamata like in the 2 pack I took a screenshot of.

Those are just random pics and don't resemble the actual plant

Hamata pitchers don't always start out black in color

They are green until they darken

That's what I was hoping for. Okay, so basically all of them are (for the most part) the same? Cause I'm seeing like 5 different options for Hamata

Agreed

You will pay out the backside for a SG Hamata. That's if you can find one

I was being sarcastic. Just not used to seeing green mature traps of Hamata.

What's an SG?

Also, is there any way to only show what's in stock for shipping? Since it's costly to ship to the US, I wanted to add an Eddie or a Villosa to my order too, but both are out :(

SG= seed grown

There's no way to show what's in stock and what isn't that I know of

Fall is the hardest time to find what you want. Spring is the best bet for availability but everything super rare goes super fast

You'd go that route as opposed to wistuba?

I would because it's different than what everyone else has. Plants that come from wistuba are typically small. Soft and with a little or barely existent root system and will require acclimation and time to get them going again

I guess it all depends on how comfortable you are with rooting cuttings. Aw plants require some tlc for awhile as well. Neither are going to be representative of the plants people are typically accustomed to receiving from Ryan or any of the other typical American nurseries

Not very comfortable. I've never done a cutting before, I guess there's a first for everything!
