Once again quality plants from Sarr NW
I have been buying plants for over 10 yrs from Sarr NW. I'm now to the point where I am picky about what I purchase as the originals have all done so well and multiplied several times over. They know how to do it!!! Best cp supplier that I have shopped from!

Great supplier of carnivorous plants
I received a very robust and healthy looking plant. It was packaged nicely for shipping. After a short period of adapting to my central Texas heat, the plant is sprouting new growth and doing very well.
