Still need more room on the shelves for tanks so here's a few plants that must go. With the exception of the purpurea and the sandersonii these are all in 4" pots.

Sarracenia purpurea

Give me a quick run down on their care. Would they fare well in a terrarium? Humidity? Incandescent bulbs? Wattage?

The Utricularia sandersonii and down don't seem like carivorous plants, but that doesn't mean they aren't.

I really want one, how much are they for? How do you care for them?

 
You guys need to do more research <_< ; all of the plants posted are carnivorous.

There is no such thing as a basic, quick run down of their care. I would highly advise against getting any without doing any reading on them first. Most require specific growing conditions, dormancy, growing medium, water, etc. etc. With all the myths one hears these days it’s not surprising how so many people tend to kill their new CP shortly after acquiring it.

I recommend this forum: terraforums.com. It has a load of old, helpful posts and very helpful tutorials on how to grow and cultivate the plants.

I second that! Far too much info to try and run down each plant especially since I have at least 5 pms asking the same thing. terraforums is an awsome resource.

 
I'll go ahead and "Third" that. You'd do good to have some experience on top of your research for a few of those plants. Terra forum is a good resource. Great people over there.

 
Holy Wow! An S. purpurea, I've been looking everywhere for one!

How much for the cephalotus, and can this be sent to the UK?

Not too sure on legislation from USA to UK, I know I've traded around the rest of europe and a few asian countries without a problem though!
