Outstanding

The Venus fly trap arrived quickly, securely packaged and intact and was exactly as described. It was already in great shape for having been in transit for a week, and is currently thriving growing indoors under a light.

Great nursery sourse

Fantastic selection. The products I ordered are thriving and growing well six weeks later. Shipping was quick, and the plants all wrapped with great care for their journey from Maryland. My guests all walk out on my deck to marvel at the sundews, Venus fly traps and pitcher plants .
