are you sure ? you used it for your seedlings?

Ombrophytum native range is Southern Tropical America.

(The Ombrophytum seeds came from here.)
You'd need a Prosopis (invasive), which are trees or shrubs. Probably not too frost hardy and would need a lot of room.
In my experience, for interesting parasites: the seeds are hard to get and often not viable and the hosts are big and need to grow inside in temperate cold winters. In other words a challenge.
Good luck.
