Slightly delayed delivery but in great condition

My package arrived 2 days after original expected delivery date. However, the plants were wrapped very carefully and had enough moisture. They were in great condition and transitioned very well into my current setup. Highly recommend!

Healthy and securely packaged

My small Dingley Giant and small B52 arrived well packaged and healthy. Small plants steadily grow into large plants with consistent, easy care. Thank you for another quality carnivorous plant! I absolutely will purchase more plants and seeds from Carnivorous Plant Nursery.
