Hey, I'm posting this for a friend. He wants some drosophyllum seed badly. He'll pay money for it or I'm willing to trade seed from the following: Vfts, capensis, rotundifolia, dichotoma, or adelae. Will also trade baby VFTs or a baby ping. I don't know what he'll trade but let me know what you have and I'll get back to you!

Drosophyllum lusitanicum seed: http://www.cascadecarnivores.com/produc ... ucts_id=93

The owner's name is Ron, and he's reputable. He's one of the only 5 online CP sites I fully trust.

These are really hard to germinate, so if this is the first time, do a lot of research while they are on the way and get your stuff ready to go. The seeds will generally not germinate properly without scarification.

I recommend trying two scarification methods with half the seeds, in two batches, if it's your first time. In case one method doesn't work, you won't lose all the seeds.

Start here:

Good luck
