    How the internet has changed the way we shop... being able to get soil mailed to you is the best.

    Great service and product

    I received a lovely pitcher plant from a friend for Christmas and wanted to repot it so I ordered the recommended soil from Sarracenia NW. The website was a joy, the service was fast, and the product is perfect. Thanks so much. I hope these little plants love our flies!

    Carnivorous Plant soil mix

    Posted by Tom Rutter on May 2, 2017

    I had been using New Zealand Sphagnum with carnivorous plants w/ good results in the past but this season I've been dividing my plants and potting some in your soil mix and some in New Zealand Sphagnum just to see if I notice a difference. The mix is certainly cheaper and the results at least so far with the Venus Fly Traps looks promising.

    Potting soil mix

    Once I mixed the perlite into the meat moss, it was more or less ready to go.
