Curious plant never disappoints. And delivers plants of exceptional quality! Already seeing new growth and will certainly come back here again for more plants in the future.

First time owner of any kind of Butterwort and I was well impressed with the packaging the plant arrived in. I also ordered the recommended soil mix and would definitely purchase another species of Butterwort from Curious Plant.

My first carnivorud plants! Arrived in great shape, and acclimated well. Even had a little pup that I separated.
