Subject: DC CP Meeting

Thanks to all who attended the National Capital Carnivorous Plant Society
(NCCPS) summer meeting in Alexandria Virginia. Quick highlights:

John Hummer showed slides of a rare stand of D. filiformis filiformis in
Columbus Co., NC, Many brought in photo albums of recent or past CP trips and
incredible plants were offered for free, thanks to the generous donations of
Bill McGlaughlin, Mark Lysne, Perry Malouf and others. (Treasures included
large specimens of N. 'attractive fuso', N. x hookeriana, S. minor 'Monkshood'
and S. 'Hummer's Hammer' ((S. rubra alabamensis x S. psittacina) x S. rubra
alabamensis), both new cultivars to be introduced by Bill, P. gypsicola (large
and in flower) and more.

The Society will hold a plant sale and show at the Green Spring Garden Park's
Annual Fall Plant Day (September 12) in Alexandria, VA and is tentatively
scheduled to hold a fall meeting October 25 at the U.S. Botanical Gardens
Propagation Facility in Washington, DC. Mail will be sent about these
upcoming events.
