Got it at a delayed time because of a winter storm but it was packaged so well that it was still in perfect condition when I finally got it. The cups that were there during shipping dried up and had to be cut but the plnt is producing many new ones already! Very happy with my purchase!!
Received a plant with many healthy happy pitchers! No brown edges at all. Living peacefully in my kitchen window.
The pitcher plant arrived very well packed, with a heat pack, in great condition. It is now growing nicely with eight well formed pitchers and more coming. My wife was very happy with this Valentine’s Day gift.
Plant arrived beautifully, and has put on a big burst of growth since arriving! Can't wait for the new pitchers to fill out!
Expertly packaged and arrived in great condition. Beautiful specimen and seems very happy. Thank you.
Perfectly packaged, arrived in excellent health and immediately resumed healthy growth in my home's conditions
I loves this plant it has very good pitchers and is bright in cooler
The plant was packaged very well and arrived in good shape, with several pitchers fully grown already. One pitcher was damaged during transportation (which is perfectly understandable). Soon after I unpacked the plant, a rot set in that required me to amputate 2 leaves, but I don't know if that was the seller's fault, and the plant made a full recovery. The plant is still growing nicely to this day.
This plant arrived in excellent condition (aside from one broken leaf, which is almost impossible to avoid). After a month in my terrarium, the plant has grown large enough to be transferred to a larger pot.
