Hello OCPS!
Stand by for a very important announcement! I have an abundance of CP for sale, (over 100 plants), mostly Sarracenia species & hybrids, and (wait for it...), CEPHATLOTUS! The Sarracenia are primarily seed grown plants from such diverse sources as the ICPS Seed Bank, Marston Exotics (now PJ Plants in the UK), Alan Lowrie, and Chiltern Seeds, also from the UK. A full list will be posted hopefully in the next few weeks. I also have several mature, flowering size (I just trimmed the flowers off this weekend) Cephalotus follicularis in 4" pots ready for sale.
What I am planning to do is hold an open house on Saturday, July 29/06 at my greenhouse, which is located near the village of Millbank on the outskirts of Perth County in Ontario. (I am about half an hour from Kitchener and 20 minutes north of Stratford). I do not desire to do any mail order. This sale is open to members of the OCPS only, and sales will be based on first come, first served, although the Cephs will have to be limited to one per customer depending on the response. The sale will probably begin at 10:00am. Cash sales preferred please.
If you are interested in attending this open house, please email me at 'regina.rostance@symatico.ca', or at 'nr@rwdi.com'. I will then forward you the directions to my greenhouse. Refreshments will also be provided.
So mark those calendars and hope to see some of you in a few weeks!
Nigel (Biollante)

Hmmm... I doubt my bicycle would make it out there but I'll see what I might be able to set up, there are a couple of Sarrs that I could see wanting... Thanks for opening your greenhouse to us!!

I'm in Guelph, this sounds like a likely visit for me.

Not a good time for me. Oh well, space is getting a bit tight around the old CP farm here anyway. Have fun.

Way too far to walk, but I'll be there in spirit. Give a Ceph a hug for me.
