    An absolutely wonderful little bundle of flytraps which are all quite alive and well a month later. I am always amazed at the care of shipping given to all the plants sold here.

    My “Dente Flytrap”

    Posted by kathie adams on December 27, 2021

    It arrived, safe and sound. Wrapped lovingly and securely, it survived shipping across the country and has settled into its new home beautifully. Can’t wait for spring, when it will begin actively growing again.
