I'm with Tom, as I think Boer Green surely has ressurected somewhere.

Sorry guys I didn’t think I would even get a reply. Iv been busy all day+worked last night. Check Ebay only if your not going to bid me up. ;D I can’t vouch for the quality but what the hay. Just remember I don't have to share this kind of info. I could have kept it all to my greedy self. May the bidding begin. Stephen

I wonder if they're listing any Nep rajahs... Maybe we need to go to www.ebay.Mt.Kinabalu (not a real link) to find those listings

Heck, I just posted a note about this on the Trading thread...and here you all are, already chatting about it! Apparently "macrovulgaris" is indeed the old Boer Green (despite some of the nice PMs, it's not me... I'm not in this business). There will also be two other sources coming on stream later this month that will also be selling nice Neps - including N rajahs... and both of them are Canadian plant nurseries - one operating out of Richmond, BC and the other out of Maple Ridge BC. (btw, "macrovulgaris" operates out of Ladner, BC ...so that means within a 15 mile radius of Vancouver, there are now currently three Nep nurseries!). All three of these nurseries get their plants from Rob Cantley of Borneo Exotics (Sri Lanka).
Burnaby Greenhouse, which supplies most of the westcoast for ornamental houseplants (including Neps at Home Depot) get their source from Exotica once in awhile. The other place that sells Neps in Vancouver is "Sunny Bonsai" (and their affiliated Orchid sales colleagues/ shops)...their source is Malesiana Tropicals.
Thought you all might want to know.

Thanks for the info, quite interesting. Seems like we well be (at last!) flooded by Nepenthes!
As for Boer Green, I'll wait my ramispina before ordering any more plants, just for doing it safely...

As per my earlier thoughts on the other thread... my dealings with Boer Green early last year were pleasant. His plants were all healthy and packed well. I heard that his problems arose with some of his plants being stopped at the border...then his personal affairs complicated things a bit more.
As for the recent eBay stuff, it seems that a few of the earlier items have been sold. Maybe I'll bid on a few of the new listings...
