I'm looking forward to stratifying these and getting them started under lights to plant in the outdoor bog next year. Thanks!

Capillaris grows wild around here and well north of me, so I believe it will be just fine outside in the bog. I'll post update in my bog thread as I learn what works and what doesn't.
In your location, you might get away with putting it in an outdoor bog as long as it has time to mature before winter, and you take measures to protect the adult plants from the occasional cold spells you get.

There are forms near you that would be considered temperate or warm temperate, but these aren't, I believe.ChefDean wrote:Being subtropical to tropical, capillaris does not need stratification, nor does it require a dormancy.
