carambola Posted August 12, 2017 Report Share Posted August 12, 2017 Spread the seeds on soil, keep them moist and warm, and wait. It can take a long time for them to germinate, and it will take a very long time for them to grow into adult plants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manders Posted August 13, 2017 Report Share Posted August 13, 2017 If this is seed of ebay, it probably isnt raja. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Party_Gecko Posted August 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2017 True but it is still another nepenthes to add to my collection Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manders Posted August 14, 2017 Report Share Posted August 14, 2017 Most probably a lowlander, or maybe not even nepenthes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said I must have missed the part where you wrote that you got them on eBay. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manders Posted August 15, 2017 Report Share Posted August 15, 2017 (edited) There us a guy in ebay from sri lanka selling edwardsiana, raja seeds etc, it's a scam. If they are nepenthes then probably most likely they will be distillatoria which is a sri-lankan native. It will be years before you know and if you try to grow them as a highlander they wont survive anyway.
