    Very happy with this

    Growing nicely, and getting larger. It's been catching gnats galore!

    Great for controlling fungus gnats

    Posted by Sandra on December 18, 2020

    I had to bring in my bonsai for winter and had a horrible infestation of fungus gnats. Ordered a couple of these to help get rid of them. Plants arrived in excellent shape and not even 15 minutes of putting them out they were loaded with bugs. Their growth has exploded thanks to being able to eat so good. Highly recommend having these plants around, they make great pest control.

    Cute little guy

    Posted by Tim on July 20, 2020

    I wanted a tropical sundew to keep in a south facing window year round where I also grow some herbs. There were some gnats around the plants and I figured the sundew would help. It's been thriving and eating well. The plant was well packaged for shipping and was dewy and colorful from day one. I'm very satisfied.

    still kinda gray?

    Posted by Emma on July 4, 2020

    I received this along with a spat and graom on June 26. It's July 3. It's still looking kind of gray, but it is getting dewy up top. It is growing a new leaf too! *** RESPONSE BY SARRACENIA NORTHWEST *** Thank you for your purchase! I'm not sure what you mean by "looking kind of gray."
