Dear Michael,



I'm so happy you reached out! I've been meaning to drop you an email ever

since my incredible B52 (named Fred) arrived this past Saturday.



1. It arrived sooner than expected.

2. It was in perfect condition.

3. There were about 9 gorgeous traps and two baby traps on the way!

4. I potted it up immediately (using the *very* helpful & detailed

instructions you provided) popped the pot into a larger, wider, vessel,

filled the vessel to the recommended water level with distilled water and

put it in my southwest facing window.

5. On Monday morning, Fred caught his first fly. I was thrilled. Picture

attached - you can see the outline of his first meal in his new home : )

6. It's only been 4 days but Fred is - so far - doing great!



I'm so impressed with the size, quality, and vigor of Fred ... I absolutely

love him!

You clearly care a great deal about your plants.

Thank you so much for such a beautiful specimen.



I'll send more pictures in a week or two and appreciate any additional

suggestions to keep my little fella happy.



Again, wow, and thank you.

I couldn't be happier.

Thank you so much for reaching out! This is my second order from you because our first order for my son Chris went so well! My other son Cody, who is 15 wanted a Venus fly trap of his own.



The plants arrived beautifully in great shape! Especially considering the big heat wave we’re having… I was a little worried about them in the mailbox.



Cody opened them right away and planted them and put them in an east facing window here in Missouri.



Thank you so much! He is super excited about his plant! He had to leave for Summer camp and he asked me to send him a picture of his plant every day! Ha!



Thanks so much!

Karin

When I received my last 2 plants my boxes was crushed and damaged do to the boxes being smashed I don’t know what happened or what went wrong.. I know I was very angry and my nerves are all over the place. From Staff: You can see the growth points emerging from the plants. New leaves are sprouting from the healthy plant.

Hello, you asked me to send a picture of the plants, a lot of of them were black when I opened the package, I am hoping and praying that they will snap out of it! Any ideas? From Staff: Those darkened traps were old traps anyways. New ones will replace them. Plant looks great and healthy!

No to whoever I was email Saturday about my order and the issues is completely useless and unprofessional!!!! First off i wanted to return them and he lied saying you don't do returns until i showed him a screen shot of the website and made it a big deal i wasn't happy with the plants. So It will cost more than they're worth to send them back. So i decided to plant them. After being in my home for a day kept like the directions say till i got the water that night. This is your plants that you sell. It's completely shit. The venus fly trap fell apart after taking it out of towl and couldnt wrap the moss around root like you say. Following all directions your product is horrible. No wonder you don't want returns or have allow feedback cause you know you sell trash.   I've attached the venus flytrap photos and i will attach the other two plants.

Hi Michael,



I have been buying plants from you for several years now. They have all done wonderfully! The delivery I just got were for my friends. We had a planting party at my house and I am hoping they have the same success that I have had. We live near Southport, NC so I am hoping theirs will thrive as well.



Last year I decided to bring the plants in because the winter was much colder than usual. Is it safe to leave them out when we have periods of severe cold like last year? It's much harder to take care of them inside because the heat dries them out.



I do get a lot of compliments on my plants. I am convinced this has more to do with the quality of the plants than me!



Sincerely,



Deborah

Good evening. My plants arrived today. They look fine.  I have potted both of them and attached photos. Are there 3 venus fly trap plants? Do I need to separate them? I am hoping for success with my plants.

The 3 king henry's are circled in red. The flexx in blue. It's a single rhizome. I tried to take it apart but could not without damaging it. All the traps come out of the same place.  It was supposed to be three separate plants like the others.

Hi Michael, Yes I received the plant yesterday. It looks healthy and undamaged. Great packing job. I have set up according to instructions that came with plant. Just a couple of quick questions.  How long do I keep plant (pot) in the 1/3 of water? And how long before I can move to another more attractive pot? Thank you for a great plant. I will purchase additional in the near future. Dave

I ordered one large B52 and I received 2 medium-sized and one extremely small-sized plant. Alongside this, a week after planting, the new growth began to die off and the plant does not seem to be doing well. This starkly contrasts all my other Venus flytraps who have been thriving under the same conditions. Customer service has also been rude when I ask for help and take a long time to respond. From Staff: Customer sent us over 25 emails repeatedly and incessantly asking us what he is doing incorrectly after we already provided him with our explanations.

I transitioned to a red blue grow light and turn it on when I wake up and turn it off when its gets dark to simulate actual daytime for my area and stocked up on a few gallons of distilled water. Had a couple leaves and traps go black and fall off but new traps emerged from where I trimmed them back. I waited until they turned completely black and trimmed right above the white parts of the plant that is immediately under the surface layer of the moss.
