G'day mates,

I thought it was time I introduced myself to you all.

Im Chris Raby and I hail from The North East of England (although I
currently dwell in the Northants area). I have a small (but soon to be
larger) collection of CP's, you know the usual Sarracenias,VFT's a Few
Nep's and so on.

I got a couple of questions,

1) Ive pulled across the CP.sellerlist and you chaps in the U.S.A seem
to be able to get plants at a fraction of the cost that I pay in the
UK (especially the Nepenthes). I have ordered plants in Europe but
never from the U.S - are there any special procedures to take? Perhaps
someone could enlighten me?

Does anyone have the addresses for:

Maries Orchids
Lees Botanical Gdns
Glasshouse Works

2) I am thinking of growing Nepenthes in a greenhouse, has anyone got
experience/Tips of growing them in a greenhouse in Temperate climates?

thanks for your time


CJR
