This translates to a plant that may be smaller on top compared to other sellers plants of equal age, but a much more robust rhizome that takes off with the proper care after the sale. All the plants I've gotten from them have thrived.I absolutely agree, 100 percent. FTS may sell smaller plants, but they sure do burst with growth once they are established into their new home.
I'm actually seeing firsthand the care this week as Matt is working me like a dog with this greenhouse. It's neat watching Leah divide and pot up plants, and Matt knowing where every VFT cultivar and Sarracenia plant is without looking at the tag, knowing which are seed grown, often knowing who he got the plant or seed from originally.
Definitely a good investment, buying from FTS.

Your work is appreciated as well Dean! Sneak some photos of the green house for us
