Does anyone have experience with PurposefulPlants?

It is a Canadian supplier seemingly based around Ottawa/Gatineau. Their website is very barebones which makes me suspicious but has quite a variety of CP and nonCP. It looks like they use stock/Google photos which makes them even more suspicious.

Their url is http://purposefulplants.qontentqreation.com

Their pricing is reasonable, does anyone have any experiences with this website?

I can't get their site to load. But I'm on a phone; I'll try it from a computer later.

How odd, it's not loading for me right now either. I guess the site is down or something.
EDIT: Oh it is working again!

Well, sometimes real sellers use stock pics, but they usually only use them for thumbnails and have other pics that are not stock pics. I would contact first and ask the guy to show his setup. I'm a bit suspicious because one of the sansievera pics looks like he took it in his bathroom.

Hm ok, I have sent them an email requesting some pictures. I guess I will update when they reply :)

I would love to know if you get a reply and an answer as I live in Ottawa and am starting my Venus fly trap journey, and anywhere nearby would be nice to find info and more plants in the near future, if all goes well.

Where in the Ottawa\Gatineau area are you located?? I would love to meet other carnivorous plant owners in the area.
