Everything arrived in very good shape.
I will now follow your directions (info included with vft) to plant it.
I had a vft over 20 years ago that was very large and healthy.
Knowing the inherent fragility of carnivorous plants; this specimen eventually died as well.
So since then, and every consecutive vft I purchased, they eventually all died.
Keep in mind, I'm aware of the dormant seasons of the plant; using distilled water only, etc.
In the intervening years, when I was purchasing these traps (trying to recreate the essence of that first, healthy plant) . .
my girlfriend said I was 'Chasing the Traps' (similar to 'Chasing the Dragon' in drugspeak). Trying to reproduce that initial good experience.
I live on the coast in Northern California now; maybe this climate will help reproduce the that first healthy vft experience, maybe not . .
Regardless, the chase continues !
Thanks for reading.

This was the first time buying from Carnivorousplants and I am totally satisfied with the quality of the plants I received as well as the way the plants were packed. They were shipped and received quickly . Any future CPs will be purchased here. I highly recommend this grower.

The plant arrived in good condition. I was a little surprised at its size. I thought , since it was a " large " size plant, that it would be bigger. But I may have been over optimistic. So far, it seems to be acclimating. See the attached picture. Any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Here you go. Two plants in a glass vase/terrarium and the other in a bog bowl I set up today. We’re getting some good sunlight so the Sundews are unfurling and flower stems shooting up. Photos below.

Hello, I'm sending the pics. I have another question, this next week or so the nighttime temps will be in the 40's this is too cold for the carnivores to stay outside? Thanks, John G

Thanks for checking in, Michael. My VFT arrived quickly and in good condition. I followed your thorough instructions. My plant and setup is in the pics. The grow light is off for the day but it’s 200W so I have it 6” above my VFT. Let me know if you have any suggestions. Barbara

Dear Michael,
Thanks for your e-mail. I appreciate that you’re checking to make sure that the plants and I are happy. Rest assured that the plants got to me very quickly. They arrived in great shape. The sundew and the flytraps need to bounce back a little after their trip, but that’s to be expected. All of the plants are a nice size, and I’m very happy with them. I’ll leave reviews soon.
I’m sending a photo so you can see them. This is only a temporary setup for them, as they are going to be planted outside with most of my other carnivorous plants.(One of the flytraps isn’t in the picture because I gave it to my grandson.)
Thanks again,
Joanie

I appreciate you helping me. I’m not trying to get a new plant or anything. I’m just wondering if this is normal and if it will start to sprout new growth, I do keep them outside. Here’s another picture with my other plants some of which I have bought from you. This picture was taken the day that it arrived.
