I was back visiting family in Jacksonville, FL and had to go pick up some fertilizer from the hardware store. Went back into the garden center and saw they were selling various carnivorous plants for only $7.99 each. They had some VFTs, Sarracenias, Pinguiculas, Utricularias, and Droseras. Not too bad for the price. They also had some N. Miranda, and N. Alata for $39.99 and $24.99. I attached some pictures to the thread along with the address.

Address: 12501 San Jose Blvd, Jacksonville, FL 32223

Some of the plants I picked up. Also bought one of each of the nepenthes.

Mistakes were made

Yeah, I asked who their supplier was and they said it was a lady who ran a backyard business in Palatka. They said she also attends a few local markets occasionally. It’s nice to see the hobby gaining more attention.

I wish lots of hardware stores did the same :/ Super happy for you though =]

My favorite CP is the venus fly trap, my first love and gateway into the CP world. What's your entry plant into this addiction hobby?

Super jealous. The only place I've seen carry CPs is Whole Foods, and they aren't very healthy. I bought one anyways though.
