Evenwind has posted that he has sown some fresh seed without strat, but it's way too early to have any results yet.

All info I have found and been told point to that they can treated like a cold temperate sundew.Well, it's almost 2 months later and of the 25 or so seeds I sowed without stratification, I've got exactly 1 seedling. I have another batch of seeds but they are still in the fridge, so I can't compare directly, but I'd say my results definitely point to needing stratification.

There are TWO seedlings in the pot. Woo Hoo! Today, I added 12-15 cold stratified seeds to the pot. I'll post here with news.
