Genlisea flower
 

Hmmm...Genlisea tends not to get much love from CP growers...but here's a flower. What do you guys think? Sorry my ugly hand is in the pic.

Cute and pretty. And your hand is not ugly-lah.

Nice pic Ifurita. I have a violacea but haven't yet been lucky enough to get it to flower. I am hoping this will change when I set up my terrarium to keep the temperature up to it.

How easy is it to start Genlisea from seed? I eventually want to get one (or a few:2thumbup:) as well as some Utrics, but I don't want to bother spending twice the price of the plants for the shipping and handling.

I'm not really sure how easy it is to start Genlisea from seed, since I've not succeeded so far. I hear that the seed needs to be fresh for even a decent chance of success and given that...heh. Where are you ordering from though? I would think that being in the USA, it should be relatively cheap for you to get these plants. Ordering stuff from the US and EU for me is a real killer when it comes to shipping, heh.

I was planning to order the seeds from rarexoticseeds.com They offer Nep seeds too, but they don't say how old any of the seed is. I usually order live plants from SNW on the west coast. The shipping cost isn't terrible, its just not worth paying $30 shipping for a Genlisea and a few Utricularias.

Lovely flower, pity that I can't even import the seeds of this genus :thumbdown:
