Yes, you should find long fibered sphagnum moss (LFS), sphagnum peat moss, and perlite on the same shelf. I got it a month ago. Probably out of stock. Sometimes, dealers don't label correctly. They might get confused of LFS and peat moss. LFS is what you used now. Peat moss is in the form of brownish dust.

LFS should be fine for most nepenthes. I am not familiar with your plant, better let others comment...:smile:

Thank you. I just got the perlite at Queensbay and it's labeled as "pelite". And I got the brownish dust as well but the label reads "wet form". I hope I got the right stuff. I am planning to get shark teeth (flytraps) from Fauzi.

Oh thank you thank you so much for the offer. I will accept it with pleasure. Thank you again. But if you don't mind can you leave it at Eric's stall? I won't be able to attend the exhibition until evening as I am working in the day.

Sure. Maybe we could meet somewhere else instead. I don't mind dropping at your place if you don't mind. Where do you live by the way if I may ask?

Best Regards
Aaron Lee

That would be cool. Where would the gathering usually be held?
