Perfection is difficult but you guys are right there.
I plan to give these two VFTs to my grandkids. Still waiting on the other pot. I put one in a spiderman pot and it looks great. I wish I could upload pictures.

Beautiful flytraps
I ordered these in the winter, so they are dormant but came well packaged and in excellent condition and are still attractive to look at. I look forward to seeing them grow in the spring.

Gorgeous Plants
I ordered a few different plants and was really impressed with how carefully they were shipped. They arrived looking happy and not stressed at all. The plants are gorgeous and super healthy! I even created my own little bog garden, and I'm loving watching them grow.

Little left
As I put them in full sun and distilled water, they were dying. Brought them inside under grow lights, all I have left out of the huge clump of traps are 3 that are trying to make it, in distilled water, not holding my breath they will make it, they don't thrive after you give them the care that is needed.

New Flytrap
Plant struggled a bit with heavy rainfall in a new bog garden. Still with us. Hoping for warmer weather so it’s happier.

Dente - Venus Flytrap
What I like to do when acquiring plants from Sarracenia Northwest is to purchase two of each. In the case of my Classic Venus Flytraps six. This way I can contrast and compare the growth between them and become more knowledgeable in the process. My two Dentes' are looking spectacular with their saw blade teeth and vibrant sunset colored interior. New traps appear and open, on what seems a daily basis. They are currently under 12+ hours of direct artificial light in preparation for next month's journey outdoors. Perhaps next season I'll crossbreed my Dente with my Red Dragon (one of whom is getting freaky big with two growth points) and create my own Red Piranha!

Absolutely Stunning!!!
This plant arrived in perfect condition. I have had plants sent to me in all types of ways. I have NEVER had a plant packaged so well. Love the care guide and how much these plants are loved before they are sent out. I will be back for more plants!!
