Hello all, And thank you François for directing me to the forum.
My name is Stephen Crane and I live in the same part of England as Derek, ie Cornwall, And I have been attempting to grow nepenthes for a few years now with varied amounts of success.
With most plants I tend to grow them as source material for Stained glass windows and botanical sketches/paintings etc which are sold near and far. But most of all I find nepenthes and CP's in general fascinating.
There are a few names here I am familiar with and as such will eagerly anticipate the quality information that is available.
Happy Growing everyone
Regards Stephen

Hello and Welcome Stephen! My apologies for the belated "Welcome". It is great to have you with us. I am curious about your art. Perhaps, you could post some of you work in our Nepenthes art board ( "Amazing Leaves"). Aloha, Sam

Thank you Sam. I will post some images soon. I will see if my website wotsit will go on the signature bit. In fact that reminds me that I need to do some work on the website. Too many things to do!! I do like dead leaves!! For years I have thrown them away, even my bicalcarata ones, but what a creative way to use them!! www.scsarts.co.uk/index.htm
