Large and Healthy Drosera Plant. Best Purchase. Must Buy.
This seller is by far the best carnivorous plant seller any one of you will ever come across. I was stunned when I opened the package and found my drosera flawless. It had seven "arms" all perfectly healthy when I opened the package. The next day it began to form dew on the plant, and the day after that I was able to feed it small bugs.This is the second time I had bought from Joel's Carnivorous Plants. The first one was a Dionaea and it was as healthy as the Drosera. Both of the plants had no black traps and were very mature and active. These plants are very affordable, very healthy, very hardy and overall the best purchase I have ever made on Amazon. Unlike many other sellers on Amazon, this seller has a picture of exactly what you are getting. The picture of the Drosera above is what you will get in the mail, and I cannot express how much of a great plant that is!Not only did the seller include the astonishing plant, but it also came with a pot and tons of sphagnum moss. I will begin by saying that the pots that they come with are the absolute best for growing any type of carnivorous plant. It is the perfect fit for the carnivore, and it has holes on the sides for GREAT water filtration. It is extremely hard to find pots like these anywhere else. They also sell the pots on Amazon too which is a great convenience. Now for the sphagnum peat moss, the package comes with MORE than enough moss for the plant which is a great convenience. The moss is also a VERY high quality type of soil that surpasses anything you can buy at any Lowe's or Home Depot. It is even better than most of the moss sold at other carnivorous plant websites. You can also buy the moss for extremely cheap prices on Joel's website. Anybody can tell that this seller is putting extreme measures in making sure that these plants are healthy.Along with all of these amazing bonuses to this affordable yet high quality Drosera, it came with an amazingly helpful and easy to follow care sheet for the plant. It went into great detail on how to cultivate and pot the plant so that I did not break a sweat to put the plant into the pot. They also gave me an e-mail address in case I had any questions.To summarize this buy I will say that I got an astounding plant (I literally gasped when I saw the plant)complete with a perfected pot and tons of extremely high quality sphagnum peat moss to pot the Drosera in. The potting process was a breeze because of the care sheet that went into great detail on how to pot and care for the plant all year long. And if all of this was not enough, I even got an e-mail making sure that I was satisfied with my purchase. I am, without a doubt, buying from this seller again. Joel's Carnivorous Plants is the God of Carnivorous Plants!Since my Drosera Capensis is doing spectacular, I put a picture of it on Amazon. It is with the other two pictures that are given.

Healthy plant
Plant arrived quickly and was in good condition. The package contained everything necessary to plant and grow it- except for distilled water. The instructions were detailed but easy to follow. To my surprise I received a follow up email the next day to make sure, that I had received it and not left the package outside. This is a seller that really cares about his plants!It has now been a week and the plant is doing well and with new leaf growth, but I am still waiting for the dew to appear on the leaves which, from what I have read, may take a while. Overall I am very happy with the product.

Great specimen!!
I purchased this Sundew about 2 months ago and it really is flourishing! I was very pleased with the health of the plant, the size of the specimen, the supplies that were included, (basket, moss), and the very clear instructions to ensure successful growing. We have a large orchid collection that often produces fungal gnats. The Sundew, as a result, is well fed. I would certainly buy from this supplier again!

FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS. Have patience. Give love.
The media could not be loaded. Excellent plant. FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS. It came perfectly wrapped. I actually had to wait a few days to get the distilled water so I suggest having it BEFORE you purchase. The original leaves dried out, but if you know plants, you know you gotta keep the faith. After 1 week, the other leaves came through. I put it outside and then the dew came. Now she’s eating flies outside!!! Excellent plant . Very sturdy.

Let me tell you something...
Absolutely! Here’s a kind, thoughtful, and detailed review you could leave for Joel:---Five Stars – A Stunning Sundew and Stellar Service!I can't say enough good things about my experience with Joel and his carnivorous plants! From start to finish, everything was top-notch, and I am absolutely thrilled with the tropical sundew I received.First off, the plant arrived well packed with clear care instructions. It's obvious Joel takes immense pride in what he does. The sundew itself is so cool looking. Within the day of settling in, it had already started catching tiny gnats, which was both fascinating and oddly satisfying to watch!He provided a sheet with all my questions about lighting, watering, and even gave tips on how to encourage blooming. It's not every day you find a seller who’s so genuinely enthusiastic about what they grow and truly invested in their customers’ success with the plants.If you’re on the fence about buying from Joel—don’t be. His plants are gorgeous, healthy, and clearly grown with tons of love and care. I wouldn’t hesitate to order again, and I already have my eye on a few more additions to my carnivorous collection. Thank you, Joel, for such a wonderful plant and such a positive experience!

Good plant, just no eating
Nice plant came in good condition, be prepared they drink A LOT of water. Only down side they’ve not eaten any knats!! So kind of defeats their purpose lol but I still like them!
