Hey everyone
Thinking of getting a lot of plants from “c o oks car nivores “ if you have bought from them please let me know you experience with them and the condition of your plants! I really am thinking of trying them bcs of their wide variety and amazing prices.

If it's from the seller, Dean Cook, I've bought from his website before. I believe he only ships out once a week with a cutoff time which can be found on the home page. As for his plants, you pretty much get what you paid for. The Venus flytraps were definitely on the smaller side but they were healthy. For drosera, they can get pretty smashed since it's shipped bareroot in a plastic bag but they usually recover after an x amount of time. His Nepenthes are spot on where I'm overall pleased with them. The only thing that I didn't like was how he ships out pygmy drosera bareroot. Root disturbance for that genus is usually fatal and should be shipped potted.

Have you gotten any sarracenia? I wanted to get some sarracenia, flytraps, darlingtonia and possibly some sundews. I understand the price/size things but I think that it’s too good of prices to pass up.
