I know an academic who would be delighted to talk about Nepenthes etc. His name is Dr Barrie Juniper, at Plat Sciences, University of Oxford. E-mail him your questions on barrie.juniper at plants.ox.ac.uk. Also, probably out of print, but he coautheored a great book on carnivorous plants with Professor Sir Richard Southwood.
Good luck
