Hi,

_Byblis liniflora_ is one of the fastest germinators at lesat from my
experience. It takes at most three weeks, usually 2 weeks with 70-90% success.
But I have got only experiences with seeds harvested from plants in culture.

_Byblis gigantea_ takes a little bit longer but germinates with reasonable
success if you apply giberillic acid (sp?) 1g/l for 24 hours. Then it
takes about 4 weeks (30-40 % success). Unfortunately my dog has eaten the only
surviving plants. :-( (Any spare seeds outthere ?)
