I got it in May, I now have two plants. They are both catching flies. It hasn't grown as much as the King Henry though.

Perfect in every way. :)
Beautifully packaged and received promptly, is starting to flower in mid May!!
Plant was in dormancy but I totally expected this due to the time of year ordered.
arrived in perfect shape and is doing well
looking forward to seeing grow and become a productive part of my carnivorous garden
was very impressed with the plant as well as how it was packaged. I will definitely shop with you guys again.
Plants arrived healthy
I was impressed with the level of care that was taken to ensure a safe journey to my house. Plants arrived on a very cold day; it was about 20 degrees F on the day they showed up on my porch. Taking them inside and unpacking them revealed very healthy looking plants. As I live in Plant Hardiness Zone 5, I will be keeping them indoors this winter while trying to maintain dormancy by placing them on a cool windowsill. I am looking forward to watching them flourish outdoors once Spring arrives!
Small plant but large vigorous traps. Loves the sunshine. Still growing even though it's wintertime.
Great everything. Thanx
growing quite well catching fly's.
