FlytrapCare Carnivorous Plant Forums

Hello, its been awhile since I've been on the site, because I have been busy a lot with school. A couple months ago, I decided to try to grow some VFT's from seed, and did not succeed. I was wondering if anyone could send me some VFT seeds to Canada. It would be greatly appreciated. Also, could someone give me a link to the best way to grow a VFT from seed?

Edit: I think the reason that my other seeds did not grow was because I bought them from somebody off of ebay, and when I received them, more then 50% of them were brittle and fell apart when handled.

Growing Venus fly traps from seed

Thanks Matt. Still looking for seeds, anybody.

You can buy them from Keehn's Carnivores in the Okanagan. I've just ordered some but haven't received them yet. I think it's 25 seeds for $5? Something like that. They're who I've gotten all my adult plants from as well.

Hey, sorry, I'm looking for something cheaper if any of the kind members have anything.

If you can wait for a couple weeks/ a month or two, I'll have some from my typical flytrap that is blooming right now.

Okay MichaelG. I will still be looking for seeds but I will just buy a whole plant first, then once you have seeds, I can go from there. Thanks.

No problem. I should have hundreds of seeds if all my plants with flower stalks will produce seed. I'll have seed from a typical, akai ryu, big jaws, dente, and pink venus. Of course, since they are all going to be growing from seed they will be unnamed clones, or "typical" variety plants but they should inherit some cool characteristics! I would love to sell/give you a grown plant but I cannot ship to Canada, unfortunately. I can ship seeds, however, so no worries.
