Hi Doug,
Sounds like you have a pretty nice collection of CP already. I
think it's a little hard to answer your question because how hard a plant
is to grow depends on what your conditions are. I think Cephalotus isn't
too hard to grow. As for Nepenthes, there are several that are fairly easy to
grow. N. gracilis and N. alata are pretty easy to grow. There
are others which also are not too difficult depending on what temperature
range you're growing plants at. Most of the Sarracenia species are pretty
easy to grow. I'm sure others will share their opinions with you, and can
tell you more about some of the plants you're interested in than I can.
Hope this helps.
