This will be the last plant that I buy this year, so I wanted to do a final review for the 2014 growing season.
I bought a second S. leucophylla from California carnivores, and like every other time, I was in awe of the plant I received.
It was even larger than the leucophylla that I had ordered from them the first time.
It also came with an unexpected bonus: several large drosera, labeled 'D. Triffida'
My package arrived in 3 days. The cost of the plant was $9, but the shipping cost shot the total price through the roof. :o
Also, I've come up with the idea to start making video unboxing/reviews for the plants I buy over the 2015 growing season, since I have searched YouTube for similar videos, but have found only a few.

Here is a picture of my plants :)

Nice pants. My only complaint with them is the overpriced shipping and the higher plant price. I could got my leuco for 12.00 and i could get a nice one with location data from mike wang for about 20.00 dollers. I feel like you get sent smaller plants when you order online.

I always enjoy visiting california carnivores and i always buy several things whenever i visit.

Uhm i have to agree with Goodkoalie, the plants you receive from online are just puny. CC is a great source if you really cant find CPs in your area and dont mind paying a lot extra...Check out Mikewangs sale page or other sales that are posted on the Sarracenia forum. In addition, the CP Trade/sale group on facebook occasional has sales for pretty awesome prices. There are plenty of other sources of CPs if your keep an eye out for them.
