Which one? Decisions, decisions.
While smoke or GA3 treatment is recommended for either, I know liniflora will germinate without it, but in lower rates.
On the other hand, some say aquatica is easier than liniflora, others say harder. However, it can get much larger with a nice red color.
What are you feeling?

(do byblis growers actually go through the hassle of smoke/acid-treating their seeds every year, or is there some other way to keep them growing?)
In my experience, the fresher the seeds, the less you need treatment. However, my experience is limited to liniflora. In researching aquatica, it says that smoke is still necessary, at least sowing them on freshly charred, but cooled, media. I encourage you to do your own research though.

Those seeds grew some pretty awesome and interesting looking byblis plants for sure. They were like miniature dew trees. Good luck!
