    All the plants ive ordered have been packaged very well and love the quality. Before i discovered Sarracenia i purchased carnivorous plants from a seller in new york and the difference is astounding. Sarracenia plants are unbeatable!

    Fly trap receipt

    Posted by kenneth eshleman on August 15, 2020

    The fly trap arrived ahead of schedule, wrapped up tight and snug. It was very healthy. I've already transferred it a tray with water and will plant it this fall in my bog.

    Cool plant

    Posted by GorgeGirl on August 13, 2020

    Plant arrived moist and in good condition, very well packaged. This is our first carnivorous plant. A few of older traps turned black shortly after it arrived, but little babies are growing up so I think this would have happened regardless of shipping. We are keeping the plants outside and they have already trapped bugs naturally! Very exciting.

    Top Quality!

    Posted by Bruce Hayes on August 13, 2020

    The extreme care and labor that goes into packaging a single plant is incredible. And it ensures the plant arrived perfectly healthy. Then, there's the plant. So healthy and not some tiny start or an immature plant. A bargain at twice the price.
