I bought this plant for my boss's birthday as it reminded me so much of her. (Pink and cheetah print). I had ordered a small, and to my surprise, this amazing company sent me a medium after conversating with them about trying to get one with a couple pitchers already on it! I can't say enough good things about this company! Usually, I only rate 4 stars as every business always has room for improvement, but for this purchase, it's a solid FIVE STARS!
Arrived just fine and in a timely manner . Had one older pitcher that I cut off. Now growing 2 more! Very happy with my purchase!
The two plants I bought both arrived extremely well packed and in pristine condition. They're both growing and doing very well!
The plant looks just like the picture and is doing well looking good and it only got a little bit homesick. We took care of that with a nice window facing east
My Nepenthes X Gaya shipped fast and arrived beautiful and healthy! The packaging was great, filled tightly so the plant would not roll, and they added a heating mat for extra protection. I will definitely be purchasing from this company again.
I would love to see more species of nepenthes in your nursery for sale your nepenthes gaya has lit a nepenthes flame
I received a beautiful, healthy plant. Packaged very securely, received quickly. Would definitely buy from this seller again.
Sometimes I have problems with ants are there any tips or information on dealing with them they seem to always find them
This plant was well packaged and in great shape when it arrived. Plant is doing well and getting new pitchers routinely. Very happy with this purchase.
The plant arrived well packed and in good shape, despite going to a PO Box and sitting there several days. It has just kept growing, with new pitchers appearing and I love it. The trick will be keeping it going all winter. Very happy.
I honestly thought this plant wasn't going to do much. I was preparing myself for the worse. But with a little attention its started to give me more and more pitchers leaves look healthy too.
Love the shape and coloration. Came with two developed pitchers that took a dent out of the late spring gnat invasion in my bathroom. Seems to be adjusting well, although the new leaves are coming in red. Maybe it’s getting too much sun?
