Greetings from San Jose

Hi,

I've been growing CP for over 10 years now and am currently President of the BACPS. I give presentations to garden clubs pretty regularly and have a blast doing it.

I bought my first CP at California Carnivores and still make an annual pilgrimage there. I'm amazed at how much I can still spend after all these years.

You can see my collection and bog garden at www.eaglesroost.net.

Hi Stephen

Upon viewing your website: I'm pretty certain I visited your garden a few years ago during a SCVKoi & Watergarden Club tour; I remember the large bog being on the right hand side (when ones' back is to the house--I think that's the north end?), a charming "pothole" water garden in the center, a half-barrel water garden toward the left and long line of Sarracenia along the south side of the house.

If this is indeed your garden: I *loved* that yard. It was the highlight of the tour on that very hot and exhausting day and as much as I enjoy koi ponds, your CP bog garden spun my head around. It was my first exposure to CPs and I'd had never seen anything like it.

Fast forward a few years and I'm mucking about in the yard digging holes trying to capture a small bit of the wonder I saw behind that house. Me and my nine-year-old son have been bitten by the CP bug rather badly. I blame you

Best, Janet
(also in San Jose)

Hi Stephen,

G'day from Perth, west Oz.

I like your website, and talking about that I read your account of the N. truncata lid opening. Did you get video of the event or just the photos?

Kind regards,

Dave.
