Erlend,
No, I did not get them from Trebrown, I got them from Christian Port about a year ago, I suppose they could be the same seeds, I don't know if they are the same original source, but the description of these were along the lines of "similar in size and appearence to M. ingens with some differences, perhaps a subspecies". It is well known that there are different varieties of M. ingens that have not been studied. However, I have already arranged for a DNA test when they are large enough to collect a sample from.
