Hi: I've been sitting back reading for a few days and thought I'd
introduce myself. I am an avid orchid grower and have been interested in CPs
for a long while but only recently took the plunge and got some. I started off
with four Sarrs and four Droseras. Being a grad student in plant breeding and
genetics, I have a big interest in plants of all sorts. I have a couple of
questions and hope someone can help.

1. The Carnivorous Plant Newsletter has been mentioned as a source for info.
How does one suscribe to this? ie. What's their address and costs.

2. I have both spagnum moss and peat moss. Is there any major
difference, as far as the plants go, between using either as a potting
media? I have put mine in the spagnum peat moss since its easier to
keep wet and cheaper but will repot if there is a large difference.

Thanks for any help.
