Wow, those two plants found in Stewart's books. Can I book seeds now?

I'll work on getting them to germinate first. I have read though that meristocaulis is not self fertile and can be difficult to pollinate so we will have to wait and see. Hopefully I will get a few plants and that will increase my chances of getting seed later.

How the heck you get hold of meristocaulis seeds? If it is related to pygmy sundews, it may produce gemmae.
Stewart was not sure if it does produce gemmae when he gave his talk at the ACPS meeting last year.

Hi Khoas, Allen Lowrie is selling them. When I saw them in his catalogue I just had to buy them. Couldn't resist. I will certainly keep my eye out for gemmae. It would make me very happy if I can get them to grow and they then produce gemmae as well.

Added a few more plants that I was fortunate enough to pick up today and a few seeds that germinated recently.

Welcome to the forum Sean. I happened to drive past. I must say I was pleasantly surprised with what I picked up. It isn't everyday that someone gives away almost there entire collection. I certainly wasn't expecting to pick up a D. regia.

Can I reserve one of the D. sp. Hermanus should there happen to be multiples in the pot?

No problems if there are multiples. I will check the pot and let you know if there is. I know that Peter did have a couple of others there that you may be able to get if you let him know you want them.
