I would have to respectfully disagree with one of the respondants claiming that Cephalotus is difficult to grow and not appropriate for a beginner. [[/I]
I just dont want any confusion, I would be that "respondant" . I'm not saying its impossible. she can definitely do it and there are plenty of people here to help. I think it would be very misleading however to say that is a beginners plant. This exact topic has been addressed with new users and added to by many experienced users and moderators,
I understand its doable. and it is in fact. some people can grow these with ease but the general population I dont think would recommend it to a new grower
now I said to correct me If I'm wrong, but I had thought she was new to CP's and I dont think it would be fair to say boom go right ahead.
if she wants to... great! if she can do it ... great!
I think its irresponsible as a grower of any calibur to not freely give advice if they believe it will help another grower and that is what makes this forum great
I was just wanting to pass a word of warning. and merely suggest.
so I respectfully disagree as well

anything delicate in australia? you know you could probably grow cephs' like grass if the majority of the people here actually lived in australia...
Darlingtonia grow really well over in Oregon... yet if I tried to grow them outside in Kansas I may have a wee bit more of a difficult time with it... now why would that be?
becuase well plants really are governed by their enviroment... hence why plants are particular to certain areas and climates... now taking a plant from one part of the planet and over to another could prove to make growing it somewhere alittle more challenging...
so if theres a spot by spot guide on how to make a spot on Australian enviroment encompass my backyard well then heck yeah go ahead and plant those bad boys where ever they may fall I'm sure they'll grow wicked awesome...
