Question: Buying pygmy sundew gemmae online; worried about shipping to Hawaii (extra days). Viable?
Answer: Yes, they ship well—we've received from Czech Republic with good germination. Sow immediately on peat or peat/perlite; gemmae have shorter lifespan than seeds.
Follow-up: Lives in Hilo (wettest US city). Suggests visiting Sam Estes' nursery in Pahoa for amazing Nepenthes.
Follow-up 2: Trouble with fine peat washing away. Wet peat before mixing with perlite. For heavy rain, use peat + crushed lava rock (1:1) and top-dress with lava rock to deflect water.
Good Growing!
