The plant arrived in excellent condition. Didn't sulk at all after I received it, and has been thriving in my back yard ever since.
This plant is thriving! When I bought it I din't know just how large it was! Now it has doubled nearly tripled in size!
Plant arrived very healthy and packaged very well. I am well pleased with my purchase and look forward to doing more business very soon. Thank you so much, Corey
Sarracenia Northwest sets the expectations of carnivorous plant sites. Their plants always come very well packaged and in excellent condition. My heliamphora came in excellent condition. Already started producing more pitchers.
I love ordering from Sarracenia Northwest!! The plant arrived healthy and beautiful!! The plant had about 5 adult pitchers on it. Very nice! Definitely recommend!!
Wow this plant is bigger than expected and gorgeous! Packed with care, and has already grown 3 new pitchers from two growth points in the 2 weeks I've had it.
Honestly pretty amazing, for the price I was expecting a small plant with its first or second mature pitcher and a few juveniles around the crown, but I got a legitimate, large mature plant. It came with two mature pitchers about 4 inches tall and absolutely healthy, and a new pitcher has started emerging. Shipping was fast and everything shipped successfully with zero damage due to expert packaging. Always impressed.
This is another one of those great looking plants that you just can not pass by with out admiring more of it. I am sure that the insects will feel the same. As they say "Beauty over the Beast" or maybe it was over the "Bugs".
I've coveted one for a long time, the sale did it. It is even more beautiful in person.
After a week of the arrival, a leaf turned brown, but the plant is growing good. The temperature outside was 20F, but the plants weren't cold, since it was shipped with a heating pack.
