    The flytrap is doing really well. It has already caught two insects and started to eject one. Great pliant.

    Low Giant Flytrap

    Nice healthy plant! It's growing well indoors under lights. I'll put it outdoors in November when Waco mimics Wilmington, NC weather/temperatures.

    Dionaea muscipula "Low Giant Flytrap"

    Posted by Mark Bauer on January 18, 2018

    In addition to an excellent plant, which arrived typically well-packaged, plant protected, I always was abler to receiver expert advice on this as well as protecting plants in our cold winter state of Wisconsin. Trustworthy and dependable are two of the many qualities of Sarracenia Northwest. Nonpareil.
