As my B. liniflora and guehoi populations dwindled off and I still haven't managed to get rorida permanently in the collection, few posts. However, my most recent success, if the cross worked, is an exciting one: B. liniflora x guehoi by Hawken Carlton, on Flickr

Here I've tried like 3 times, Biblys makes seeds but they never germinate in the second generation

I have occasional issues with new-generation seeds, but the liniflora and guehoi currently sprouting are new generation...

B. liniflora by Hawken Carlton, on Flickr B. guehoi recently gave a flower, then was simply too lanky so I cut it into several pieces. Now I have a bunch of "same clone" guehoi growing, but nothing to cross them with until liniflora grows up again. Have to restart rorida, again, since it seems to get picky as soon as it exceeds about 4" tall...

Good luck! Even though I had over half a dozen adult seed grown plants I never got two plants to flower within a time frame to pollinate them. So now I have none.
I suppose you could try saving some pollen - perhaps freeze drying.

Already have, and hopefully as more flowers open I'll get more pollen. Then, just the hassle of getting another plant to sprout and grow...although, you can propagate guehoi via cuttings.

The usual "bleach treatment" that I use on the pickier species apparently doesn't work with liniflora (as the seeds have started molding), but it did manage to give me two new guehoi seedlings! Hoping the new LED will keep them more compact than my last tangled 10 foot of vines monster... Byblis guehoi by Hawken Carlton, on Flickr Byblis guehoi by Hawken Carlton, on Flickr
