    I ordered a nepenthes ventricosa and it arrived in great shape due to spectacular packing. I have had it about a month and it's put out a new leaf and is growing 2 new pitchers. Very happy with all the plants I've received from you guys. You're my first stop when shopping for plants online. Almost my whole carnivorous collection came from your nursery, thank you

    OUTSTANDING! VERY PROFESSIONAL!

    Posted by Tim on September 8, 2020

    I NEVER write reviews but I made an exception for my experience with this company. I ordered a Nepenthes Ventricosa and it can on time and in perfect condition! Inside were instructions on how to care for my plant and what to expect. It's been about a month now and my plant is doing great! If I was ever curious about any other species or info, I just watch one of their many you tube videos. You can tell these two gentleman have a real passion for carnivorous plants. Thanks to everyone at Sarracenia! I will most definitely be purchasing again from you in the future!
