First of all: as sales are not allowed on this forum you can only expect an address of a nursery or perhaps a pm. second: to increase the change of an answer it would help if people know were you are, your profile doesn't show that. You can change that by going to your profile page using the button on the top of the page with the label "profile". third: it doesn't help to repeat you question within the hour. People are coming to this forum from all over the world and not all of them are daily visitors so it may take some time (like a couple of days) to get an answer depending on question, having people who can see were you are on the forum, etc.. Last: the words inexpensive and cephalotus don't go well together

Try starting out with a cheap nepenthes first. You can find some every so often at Lowe's. Cephalics are definitely not inexpensive.

if you live on the west coast of the US I could give you a couple of good links, but Cephs are not really beginner plants.

If you are new at growing plants, I would really recommend starting of with something easier. While I agree that spending a significant sum of money on any plant when you're a noob is probably not a good idea - imho - there are few plants easier to grow than a Ceph. Like most non-cp houseplants - don't let it dry out or sit in a waterlogged tray & it's happy....

Leat100s, why don't you wait a little longer and buy more varieties of carniovorous plants that are much easier than a cephalotus, which are overally a little finicky about their conditions, especially water. This way, you can try your hand at both temperate and tropical plants and expand your collection and experience. But, if you really want to get a ceph right now, I can give this link cobraplant.com. This is a very reputable nursery and the guys just got more of the plants; plus, they are pretty reasonably priced at just below US$40. Good growing and Good Luck! -Taylor

Cephalotus are not a carnivorous plant to grow fond of,if you have limited finances.
