--blushing-- :oops: Thanks Anrich. I just try to help out when and where I can, trying to support people who have an interest in these fascinating plants.

Your seeds were mailed today. Should be in South Africa in a few days. :)

I thank everyone who has helped me and has givin me support to not give up on my plant. Even though it has died, I am not sad because I will get another plant. Steve is a great guy because he offers things to make us happy, not just to sell plants and get all the money. You know, some people sell really bad plants and just want the money. But Steve is here to help the ones who need it. Steve rocks like a rocker on a rocking chair on top of a rocking horse and is like a rock. :lol:

Steve Rules!!!!!
Thanks again( can't thank you enough)!!!!!!!!!!!
I am a student of criminology and psychology, So the human mind facinate me,
But what i can see in steve is quite Unique.
Mankind has this cardinal instinct of self-Preservation, for one person to help the other is in direct conflict with this instict.
Thus, Steve Rules!!!
End of story!!!!!!!!!!
Ahoy......

Hello Colin-- I received an email from you this morning with a question about sphagnum moss (which I answered, hopefully completely enough). Remember, I awaken in the morning about 7 hours later than you in England, or I may be busy with things away from the computer, so I may not answer an email right away. I haven't recieved any FlytrapCare.com private messages from you I don't think (I can't see any).

You might also ask that question about sphagnum moss here at FlytrapCare.com to see if others confirm what I wrote or can add more information.

best wishes,
Steve

I'm glad you received the VFT seeds. They took a while to get to England I guess. They are a nice variety, cross-pollinated from quite a few very nice Venus Flytrap clones (most of the clones I grow). I have about 250 babies growing right now from these seeds and I can already see quite a lot of variation of color, size, growing speed, etc. It will be interesting watching them grow to maturity. :mrgreen:

Anrich,

I have also ordered from Steve and he is a great guy to deal with!

If you take a look at our nursery website ratings, you will see that Steve is at the top of the list.

If you live in the USA, get behind Steve and buy some plants from him, they are healthy, well cared for, and a good size - plus if you have any questions on your new plants, you know that help is only an email away.
