    Love my Big Pink!

    Posted by Bryn on February 14, 2020

    This plant arrived in great condition and was very carefully packaged. As with any plant shipped in the mail, a couple of stems died soon after arriving, but it’s growing like a weed now! It does a good job of catching gnats and definitely cuts down on the population. It’s very pretty as well. Great plant

    Sundews & Pitcher Plants

    Posted by Susan Campbell on February 9, 2020

    These are my first carnivorous plant, not counting venus fly traps I got as a kid. I'm very pleased with the speed they arrived and all in great condition. Plenty of growing instructions were included. All of them are still alive and thriving (pitcher plants are planted outside and are dormant now, but healthy).

    As always, my new capensis came perfectly, with a few little ones in tow. They have maintained their hue under LEDs and are doing great!

    Arrived in good shape

    Sadly, my cat knocked it off the table the first night. Picked it back up and it was knocked off the table again, not sure why they knock this plant off the table and not the other 3 plants.

    Posted by Diane on April 18, 2019

    Spring fever had me buy tropical plants in the middle of winter Sarracenia packed them amazingly, snug, and warm... but they caught got in a COLD Postal holiday during shipment which severely damaged them. No questions asked Sarrcenia replaced the plants, and got them here 3000 miles away in two days! They look amazing, thank god its spring!!!
