FlytrapCare Carnivorous Plant Forums

Recently got a S.Flava and S.Purpurea ssp. Venosa and was happy with the service and plants. Placed the order Thursday and it shipped Friday promising three day shipping and even Sunday in between the delivery and shipping date it came. It was packed nicely and had enough water for the shipping period. The plants were both healthy and beautiful. I recommend California Carnivores to anyone looking for a nice CP.

P.S. Sorry if I wasn't descriptive enough this is my first site review.

Here are the two plants.

And also thanks for the extra few sundews!

Very Nice! And ty for the review because I just ordered a Drosophyllum Lusitanicum and a P. Primuliflora today. Oh, and can u take close ups of the plants?

Sure

Thanks for the review!

California Carnivores is Peter D'Amato's gig; they know what they're doing. I always get solid plants when I order from them.

Peter is the author of this book, and after so many years it's still the most recommended CP book out there:

Here are the closest pics i could get.





I still have no idea the species of sundew and plants that came with the plants.

The taller sundew in the front in the above picture with the forked leaf looks like d. binata.

Thanks. Does anyone have any idea what species the sundew near the base of the S. purpurea is.

I think you may have to wait a little more to know for sure sundew don't take that long so lets say 1 month give or take
my guess is a sundew with a triangular like spatulata such and such that was just for reference

I'd go with saying its a spartualata. Ty for the closer pics

Tis a capensis seedling, get them sprouting all over my collection...

Can't wait to see Peter speak about the new edition of "The Savage Garden" at ICPS 2012.

They do grow like weed. The dew plant sitting under the purpurea has already put out three new leaves since i got it.

Good cause I just ordered a S. Rubra from them

Nice!
