Can't wait to see some pics when you get them 
Don't worry about it. It was our mistake, so we'll eat the shipping. You and one other lucky customer got free shipping between the time I put everything in stock and 10 minutes later shut down the storeI put my order in already too - when I checked out, I also saw the free shipping, so I must be that "one other lucky customer"

I think I might wait longer to put stuff in stock next season.The only reason that I disagree with you is that shipping semi-dormant plants will cause less disturbance to their growing, because if you send them while they are in full growth, they will stop growing for a bit. I think that shipping plants as they emerge from dormancy is a good idea, because they will have time to settle in their new homes, then they'll be ready for growing!

It's just that an actively growing plant is much more impressive to see in the box when opening an order from the FlytrapStore. And many people don't really understand the drastic difference in appearance and trap size between dormant plants and actively growing plants. That's why I'm afraid that some people could or might be disappointed when receiving a dormant plant.

Well, I'm not concerned with you two being disappointed by the size of the plants. I know you understand what they look like during dormancy. Hah! Maybe I should have a separate store to purchase dormant plants from and it should have an "entry page" with the statement:
But in my opinion, VFT's are better to buy when they're starting to wake up and not when they are fully awaken.
By clicking "I Agree" you are agreeing to purchase dormant plants and acknowledge that they will appear much smaller in size than one would expect.
