Ho ho... Guess what I've just harvested. Yep Darlingtonia seed. Not so
much this year but its yours (again). If you want to tempt me with some
more wild seed let me know when you have them. I warn you, I have a
greenhouse full of seedlings at the moment and little or no prospect of
finding room for even ten percent of some of them. Hell though I can
always be tempted.
I'll send the seed off as soon as its dried out fully.
