Default Cephalotus Anyone?

Went to New Trio Products nursery yesterday and found 5 pots of cephalotus for sale there. The stocks have just arrived. So if you are interested to get them, better go quickly.

The nursery is located at the new area nearby Tropicana Golf and Country Club. If you are coming from Jalan Damansara towards the highway toll to Subang, turn off the main road just before the toll booths. Keep right and go straight for about 100 meters. There'll be a turning on your left. There's a whole stretch of nurseries there, most of which shifted there recently after the government took over their land in Sungai Buloh for read construction. New Trio nursery is number 19.

Each pot of Cephalotus comes in a clump and is about 3 inches in diameter. Tow pots have pitchers as big as 2cm.

New stocks are also available for the usual Sarracenias you see in nurseries around KL.

Four pots left. Here is the picture. They keep the plant somewhere, please ask the worker for "expensive carnivorous plant". Few air plant available too, please ask for "nanas".

Cool, unfortunately, I can't go there until weekends. By the time then, I suppose that the cephalotus will be sold off.

Do they sell other CPs?

Cheers

I can't go all the way to KL just to buy this cute little guys. I will never get them (my goal is the same as Ifurita, get all species of CPs.) unless someone buy and post laju it to me.(which is also impossible.)

I see they use sphagnum. They are smarter than my local nursery who repot every plant in normal soil including the sarras.
