Carnivore
Hi everyone
Back in the early 1980s, before the CP internet community, a number of us from Oregon, Washington, & B.C. got together for a meet and greet once every summer. We were the Pacific Northwest Carnivorous Plant club. It was founded by myself, Randy Lamb & Lorne Dennison (B.C.); Tom Kahl, Kevin Snively & Andrew Marshall (Washington) ; Don Graham (Oregon). At its peak, we had over 30 members. We organized field trips, visited members’ collections, nurseries, and shared photos, plants, seeds, and videos of visits to fellow CP growers we visited from around the world.
To this day, we still keep in touch, and some of the small Nepenthes I took photos of, are now massive plants in my friend’s’ collections. In particular, the wonderful slow growing highland species— N edwardsiana, villosa, macrophylla, lowii, rajah, etc.
Attached are a few scanned photos From the 80s & 90s. Great memories. I’ve contacted a few growers, and we’re thinking of organizing a get together later this summer... Covid socially distanced, of course
I’ll later share some photos of my Nepenthes expeditions through Borneo & Malaysia
