Currently this plant exists in only three collections worldwide. I regret that it is not possible to buy it at the moment.

Wow those are some nice looking cephs I must say. Great job guys! That green slime like stuff, is that normal for growing cephs?

Cyanobacteria or blue/green algae and it may grow on the surface of any pot. It does not appear to bother the plant.

This may seem a little over the top, but I think perhaps there should be a certificate that goes with the purchase of this plant, whenever it's sold, to determine it's the real thing? Obviously this won't work for cultivars already being supplied, but since this one's so new...

Broken photo links repaired and some more recent images added to the initial post.
Still not as dark as Stephen manages to get, but the plant is yet young...

Nice color, no wonder it is an 'Eden Black.' I've on ly known the typical, hummer's giant, and the really giant forms but not this one. I guess the cephs are going to have multiple forms just like VFTs, eh?

I really, really hope that with Cephalotus it does not turn out "...just like VFTs".

I couldn't help myself, I spontaneously squealed "they're so cute!" at the tiny pitchers nestled in between the larger ones. I'm excited to try my hand at growing one of these beauties eventually, but I've not seen them locally and I'm not quite ready to experiment with ordering plants through the mail.
Beautiful plant!

As a future to-be ceph grower this plant is just beautiful and should be continued!
Its such a shame so little are available. I hope it gets cultivated and reproduced in a large scale so it atleast wont die off!

Stephen has been busy distributing cuttings and so the plant is safe enough. It will become more commonly available in future years.
