Hi everyone.. I developed a growing affection for CPs a few months back.. I have a couple of species of Nepenthes and one - probably somewhat lonely - venus flytrap growing on the balcony. CPs aren't very big here. My son mentioned that he's never seen a sundew before and I realised that I've never either. Since then, I've been on the lookout for somewhere I could order them from (that's not too far away). I've ordered lots of seeds but none of of them have germinated (3 weeks now). I'm sure one set of seeds will eventually produce something though. Anyway, I'm sure it'll be nice to meet the rest of u. Cas

Thanks very much for advice.. I actually just received a shipment of 6 Nepenthes from Malesiana yesterday (albeit after waiting many for wks for them to ship). Plants in great shape. Just saw Borneo Exotic's site as you suggested.. May try ordering from them in the future. I don't think local plant retailers get any from them.. Seems like only 3 types of pitcher plants available throughout Singapore. I've looked up Triffid Park and they seem to have a nice range of sundews.. but have still to get over the A$85 charge for phyto cert..
