one of mine i have had for 3 years i just went and removed the seeds from it with
the help of the link you gave me thanks again

The only problem with starting from seeds, is I have read it takes 3-4 years before a pitcher appears. But it would be fun to start some that way and watch them develop.

that explains why I could never grow them from seed :blush:

I got some started, they got to about 1 inch high (all summer) then died............so sticking with plants lol
