Our Seeds

• These are fresh seeds harvested within the last two growing seasons
• The seeds we sell are either imported from trusted sellers (including reputable nurseries and private growers) or are harvested from our own plants
• We do not sell carnivorous plants or seed, collected from the wild
• With so many imitations online, all of our seeds are genuine carnivorous plant seeds - We guarantee it
• Starting and nurturing your very own carnivorous plant jungle can be extremely rewarding and most of the seed available on the store have been tested on germination in our own seedling chamber
• Growing carnivorous plants from seed requires a lot of patience
• Under optimal conditions, carnivorous plant seed usually germinates within 4-8 weeks;  However, some are seasonal and others may require hot- or cold stratification prior to germination
• In all cases, most carnivorous plants will take a couple of years to reach maturity
• As this process is mostly a waiting game, it is ideally recommended for the adventure carnivorous plant enthusiast 

Sowing Guide

• Our instructional reference guide includes complete sowing instructions for both temperate- and non-temperate carnivorous plants (a link to this reference will be available on completion of your order)
• Drosera Aliciae is a sub-tropical sundew and seed do not need any kind of stratification to induce germination  
• There are hundreds of carnivorous plant species, cultivars and varieties around the globe. The internet has some great resources and we highly recommend doing some research on the growing conditions required for each species.  Studying this information, prior to your purchase, would be in your favour
• Conditions differ and as with any other plant you will ever grow from seed a range of factors may affect germination.  Naturally, we can never absolutely guarantee germination, but we can guarantee one of the most important factors with regards to germination rate:  FRESH SEEDS
• When available the harvest date will be recorded on the seed packet

• Just a quick heads-up: Since plants are natural products, you might notice some slight variations when unboxing your plants
