Hello CP-liners,
Once again I will introduce myself and my interests. My name is
Ronnie Spears. I am a graduate student at Georgia Southern University
doing research on bats! I am also a self proclaimed botonist. I ahve
grown many different species of CP's over the past 15 years. My first was
of course the venus flytrap. I live now in prime carnivor country.
Southeast GA. (more debate material) Near Savannah, GA. My growing
interests include Drosera, Nepenthes, and Cephalotus. Currently my CP
count is zero! I have not grown any carnivors in over two years and I am
feeling a little weak in the knees. This line has sprung my interests once
again. I would like to setup a nice terrerium. What plants would make
great additions. My favorite is Ceph. f. I would like to obtain some of
the Australian tubers in the Drosera family( D. adelae) I hope i spelled it
right. Are there any cultivators of any of these hard to find species.
Most cultivars here in the southeast only have a few species. Most
Cephalotus plants are smaller than a quarter and I seem to have a wonderful
effect on them. I send them to plant heaven. The nicest Ceph. plants that
I have had came from the Atlanta Bot. Garden. It lived for three years.
Its demise happened when I left it outside thinking it could tolerate the
mild GA. winters. WRONG!!! A lite frosting seemed to do this plant in. I
remembered reading that this species could take cool weather. Anyway, if
anyone out there has any seed or plants they would like to shell off. I am
available. Thanks.

Cheers,

Ronnie Spears
