Quick delivery and great packaging so my plant wasn’t damaged in transit. Could have done with a guide for how to care for my plant as I’d never had a carnivorous plant before.

PROMPT DELIVERY
Easy to order, prompt delivery, one comment; packaging was a little difficult to remove without damaging the plant, but difficult to protect the plant going through royal mail I guess

Buying plants online can be tricky, but these are delivered in such cleverly designed packaging that they arrive healthy and happy. The care guides are a lovely touch.

Very pleased with my plants
My plants (Venus flytrap & Sundew) arrived quickly & were well packaged. They looked a little sad at first but soon picked up once I had stood their pots in water. I gently removed some of the old parts & put both plants in a sunny window. I am pleased to report that within 2 weeks I have lots of tiny new shoots. I noticed one of the open flytraps had closed. I also noticed the annoying fly that had been in the kitchen had vanished... Hope Venus enjoyed her first meal at our house.
