Stovepipe (The Beast) RIP My friend.
I will start this off with what I thought was the most beautiful plant of all!!!
If I have this right it is lowii x ventricosa B , from Matt Kaelin.

I even scored some ghost mantids! Thanks Dave!
Not this one , mine were baby's. looks like eggs are on there way soon with this one.
Forgive me Dave if I am wrong with the ID on this, I thought it looked like an older version of the ones I got from you.

Hope you like.

Ahh man I would have loved to have gone there! You got some great plants. Those Flytraps... I'd love to have a carpet like that someday.
 
Lets not forget the Killer Ant plants!!!
I took these shots quick, hopefully someone has some better closeups.
They were huge!

My mistake.
I just jumbled a bunch of pictures together and wasn't thinking.
If this should me moved to the General Discussions area just move it.
Sorry.

Great pics Jeff!

That mantid is actually the D. bolivari - the ghosts you got will be almost twice as long, but not as fat.

Also, they are almost black, whereas that one is motled brown. But you're right (at least I HOPE so) that eggs are on the way - I mated her about two weeks ago (well I didn't mate her - I had her mated, lol) so I'm hoping for ooths.....any day now, any day now....

Oh, and that Lowii x campanulata - KILLER!
 
Amazing!
 
One of these days i would like to make it out there. Keep the pics coming to those who did attend please!
 
more pics please, anyone who made it to the show.

JMatt, WOW! Those plants were stunning, much better in real life.

I'm so glad I had the weekend off to go. It's the 1st NECPS show I've managed to make it to and it was great. Everyone I met was so friendly and helpful too. Anyone who missed it should really try to go next year. It was definitely worth the 3hr drive for me. I hadn't seen my mom i a few months so I asked her to come along after my friend bailed, and she loved it, (especially your flytraps JMatt)! She just told me she totally regrets not buying more of the plants that were being sold there, so I think I accidentally turned her into a CPer too, lol!

What visitors saw when they first entered the greenhouse where the show was and some of Quogue's awesome CP photography hanging in the background:

Jeff's amazing S. leucophylla Hurricane Creek. Love that LFS:

I would not have stood a chance if Jeffalotus had entered any Cephs. My heli in the background. I saw the heli's tag on a different plant in another photo after I got home.

Quogue sure knows how to make you drool. That's why there was a towel under it:

The NECPS permanent carnivorous plant bog display in the conservatory before we restore it:
