Subject: Still 2 weeks: 1st European CP Exchange

First European Carnivorous Plant Exchange:
Bonn, Germany, September 9th, 2000

The First European Carnivorous Plant Exchange will take place on
Saturday, September 9th, 2000 in the Botanical Garden of the University
of Bonn, Germany. Organizers are GFP (Carnivorous Plant Society for the
German-speaking Area) and the Botanical Garden of the University of Bonn
(Meckenheimer Allee 171, D-53115 Bonn, phone: 0049 228 735961, fax: 0049
228 739058, contact: Dr. Wolfram Lobin) with support of Carnivora
(Netherlands). All people interested in Carnivorous Plants are invited
to come.

Crucial point will be a large CP exchange and sale. All sellers are invited
to participate, from the pupil with some less plants up to the big nursery.
In the afternoon there will be several interesting slide shows about CPs.

All CP Societies are invited to introduce themselves to the visitors of the
Plant Exchange.

depend from the success of this first event of this name - and so from your
visit and / or participation. We would be very glad to welcome you in Bonn.
