    BOGO Nepenthes

    Posted by S. Jones on March 14, 2024

    Sarracenia is by far the BEST place to buy carnivorous plants. Have made a number of purchases and have NEVER been disappointed. Plants arrive well packed, well hydrated and in excellent condition. Living in the southeast, many of my local nurseries have a fair to poor selection and the plants are in similar state. Jeff and Jacob have never let me down....Thank you so much. I began growing carnivorous about 2019 and have enjoyed expanding my collection and variety.

    The packaging was great, and the Nepenthes immediately acclimatized to its new house. And it produced the first new pitcher in less than two weeks since I received it!

    Posted by Will Lucas on April 20, 2023

    Plants arrived very safely packaged, and were not too difficult to open. Even though they were a little cold initially, they adapted to the new environment quickly and have been growing very well. Would definitely buy from here again!

    Pitcher Plant

    Posted by Gen on May 16, 2022

    The plant arrived safely and was packaged well. He had one very well developed pitcher already! He’s transitioning nicely (I hope) into his new home.

    This plant was healthy on arrival. After a short adaptation period, it is growing nicely, developing new pitchers. I just noticed another small growth with tiny pitchers at the base of the plant.

    Well-pleased with this purchase

    Posted by Anthony Butler on September 3, 2021

    This nepenthe, out of all that I have hitherto purchased, came delivered the most healthy. No leaves were rotten, the substrate was very moist, the plant was healthy and in very good condition and it came far earlier than I expected! I am well-pleased! I have planted it in a lava rock of sorts and I hope it stays awhile. Here's to hoping that I don't kill it.

    Very healthy plant

    Posted by Justin on November 21, 2020

    The nepenthes arrived beautifully packaged, and showed no real signs of decline, even after 7 long days with the USPS. This is my first nepenthes, so I wasn’t quite sure how it’d do, but since it’s arrived it has put out a new pitcher with a freshly popped lid (woot!!) and is working on another. I couldn’t be more pleased with my purchase. Will definitely order from SNW again.
