Discussed with the organiser yesterday. The competition is most probably on.
There will be a misting system set up for the Nepenthes and also water tray for other carnivorous plants. So no worry about your plants. Please support this competition. PM me for the registration. We need at least 200 plants to join the competition. |
Re: CPs exhibition and competition in Penang Floral Fest 2008??
I'll definately go to the floral fest on 29th Nov. Keeping my calender clear for that day:smile:. It will be a great chance to meet up with you all.

Re: CPs exhibition and competition in Penang Floral Fest 2008??
Okay, now can put at ease the plants well being.
Lim, have to leave the plants at teh show for a week? Or can just bring the plant back when David goes home? Ali, you have many neps. Why not bring some for competition when you come over. Ipoh Penang is pretty close. I'll dig into my short inventory see if any quality. |

Come on ! Next year we can still run another show :1thumbup: |
Re: CPs exhibition and competition in Penang Floral Fest 2008??
I will join the competition... :blush: A bit shy to put my name on the plant that Im going to send for competition :blush::blush:
|
Re: CPs exhibition and competition in Penang Floral Fest 2008??
Don't forget that besides the competition, Charles Clark and Ch'ien Lee will be there and they will be giving some talks. This is one of the highlights for me at the event and it would be interesting to talk to them in person rather than just read the books they publish. Both Charles and Ch'ien are two of the most authority on the subject of Nepenthes at present time.
In case some of you do not know who they are, here's a little introduction: Dr. Charles M. Clarke is a botanist and taxonomist specialising in the carnivorous plant genus Nepenthes. Clarke has an honours degree in Botany from Monash University in Melbourne, and a Ph.D. in Ecosystem Management at the University of New England, in Armidale, New South Wales. Clarke first travelled to Borneo in search of pitcher plants in 1987. In 1989 and 1990 he lived in Brunei, studying the ecology of Nepenthes. In between travels, Clarke has taught Ecology and Biometrics at James Cook University in Queensland, and worked as a horticultural consultant in Hong Kong. He now works at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. Clarke has written five books and guides on Nepenthes, which present a synthesis of the research performed on his travels around the Malay Archipelago. Clarke has described five species of Nepenthes: Nepenthes benstonei, Nepenthes chaniana, Nepenthes izumiae, Nepenthes jacquelineae, and Nepenthes tenax. Ch'ien Lee holds a B.Sc. in Biology/Ecology from the University of California Santa Cruz. He studied various subjects ranging from entomology to animal tracking and ethnobotany, and eventually worked as a naturalist and environmental educator in the East Bay Regional Parks in northern California. In 1996, fulfilling a lifelong desire to live in the tropics, he moved to Sarawak (East Malaysia, on the island of Borneo) to work in a program for the propagation of native plant species (The result of the program... Malesiana Tropicals). Nepenthes have been a major focus of his for over 14 years, and he has published a number of papers on their taxonomy. His photographs have appeared in numerous articles and books, and are featured in "Pitcher Plants of Sarawak" and "The Fishes of Kuching Rivers". In addition to his photography, Ch'ien is currently engaged as a consultant at the Botanical Research Centre (Sarawak Forestry Corporation) in Kuching. |
Re: CPs exhibition and competition in Penang Floral Fest 2008??
Lim, you got the thing from Wikipedia? I dug into the same patch too.
Casey, aiyah, just comeover on Saturday morning then follow David back on Sunday lo... Think firefly flies in pretty early in the morning. Just send in your plants. I volunteer to care for droseras. Nep, I have little experience. Yes, fellow petpitcher members, newbie or oldies, single plant owner and serious collectors, got droseras for the competition? I volunteer to care for your Droseras. Will go buy water tray afterwards if got takers. When I pop by KL, I'll bring back. |

Shawn,
I used to jog there at six, doubt you be there that early. Attached a google earth pic for your perusal. Craft Batik should be just where the floral exhibit is. (I don't know there the actual exhibition is yet) It is located on left as you enter the metalle road to the gardens. Next to carpark. |
