Hey everyone, It's been a while since i've been here. I'm heading to Quebec for a trip, and I was wondering if anyone knew of any good places to buy CP's while I'm there. I heard of a plant show and sale, but that's all i've really been able to find. Any help would be appreciated.

Josh, the Montreal botanical garden will be helding a horticutural sale in end of May. There will be a SCAPI/CCPS booth with CPs for sale. You might also find the odd CP at other booths. Sorry to deceive, but a CP shop doesnt really exist in Canada, except the mail order ones.

Martin said it all, but you can also find some at the hardware/garden centers, but it shouldn't be much different of what you have in Nova Scotia (Dentate VFT, hybrid Sarracenia, N x ventrata), since the source is pretty much the same (Colasanti's). But if you're heading to Quebec city, you can try the Hamel's garden center (on Hamel Blvd) which has some diversity occasionnaly (read: some neps), but nothing's extraordinary.

Colasanti's holds Ventricosas... At least thats what they said and for the Sarras, they are Dannas Delight... But I heard that at the montreal Botanical garden they have a shop that sells some droseras and a few pings... But can't confirm if its true... Cya

Hey, Thanks everyone. Yes, I usually go to the botanical gardens every year. I'm not greatly fond of their limited selections (at least when I go there, there isn't much.) Down here in NS, our Home Depot's and other plant shops don't carry CP's. I usually have to take a trip up to Ontario or down to the states to get anything. I'm looking at heading to montreal for june 3rd (plant show and sale i mentioned) so maybe i'll get up there end up may to make it to the horticultural sale.

Insectivore is right! At the entrace of the main complex, there is a gift shop called 'L'orchidée' if i remember right, and they sell some plants, where some CP could be found in the past. They either are from SCAPI/CCPS or the MBG production I think
