[Closed] Seeds, collected ethically and with permission

[Joanie]

I collected seeds from two individual plants last fall from a friend's property - a bog on the east coast of Cape Breton.

• Sarracenia purpurea - 2 x 10 seeds
• Iris versicolour - 2 x 10 seeds

If anyone would like some, dm your address and I'll drop them in the mail.
I have no idea of their viability, but they have been kept cold.
I'm trying them using winter sowing, putting them outside today.

Hi Joanie. I know someone who has a piece of property in CB with tons of Sarracenia purpurea Any tips on successfully collecting seeds?

With Sarr seeds, if the pod is dry and wrinkly or starting to crack open, the seeds are ready.

Ooh, I might be very interested in buying some seed depending on the location . I'll give you a good price.

I have never collected seeds before so I'm not sure how successful I'll be but would be happy to share if it all works out!

Seeds look like large strawberry seeds. Nothing to it, really

I collected one whole seed pod at the end of the season last year... cold, but I don't remember exactly when. Stored the whole seed pod in the fridge. I'm curious, are the plants on the coast or in the highlands?

 

[Joanie]

ps ... the seeds collected were not far from where this show was taped!
