This was a bit more expensive than the other carnivorous plants I've purchased, and I wasn't sure if I'd be happy. My worry was that it would be sensitive and end up dying on me. Well, it hasn't, and is actually growing very nicely! I have it in a cool area with cooler growing orchids, but with bright light. It is thriving so far! Very happy!
I recieved my Regia in perfect condition. It's doing well under my T5 lights. Expertly packaged and doing great so far. I am a customer for life! Every plant I receive is always in great condition. Keep up the awesome work.
Beautiful specimen, arrived well packed and healthy. Very Happy!
Healthy, and has put out several new leaves.
i was very excited to add this plant to my collection. i do not know how they package some of these plants so well, but they always do. i am excited to see this plant grown to its full size.
Great condition, packed well, shipped fast!
My regia arrived in excellent condition and it is striving and catching a lot of gnats and flies. Nice young plant at a very good price.
I was a bit apprehensive ordering this plant because some have said it’s a tough plant to cultivate. It arrived healthy on 2/7/19 and it is now growing healthy and full of dew almost one month later. It’s kept in room where temps drop at night , not waterlogged and in bright light. I’m glad I made the decision to get it.
Waited a little bit to see how the Drosera regia would do after unpackaging and its doing great! I put it outside during the day and keep it in at night to prevent frost from killing the small plant since it dosen't have hibernacula yet. Customer Service was excellent, letting me know that heavy snow conditions prevented them from shipping and would ship when conditions improved, which was perfectly acceptable. Overall I am very pleased with everything Sarracenia Northwest has to offer and will definitely be a returning customer! Update: Poor regia came under attack from aphids. I have used take-down to dispose of the pests. And it worked! Plant has some badly damaged leaves but appears to still be springing out new, healthy leaves!
Plant arrived in good shape and the heat pack was still warm. There is also another very small one growing about 1/2" from the main one. Both are doing fine under fluorescent lights..
was very impressed with the plant as well as how it was packaged. I will definitely shop with you guys again.
