They may be little but these butterworts are a gnats worst nightmare! With our Tiny Terrors Butterwort Collection you will receive FIVE different small variety Mexican butterworts (e.g. P. ehlerisae and P.esseriana) at discounted bundle pricing. The species or varieties you will receive are subject to availability and will not necessarily be the exact kinds shown in the photos. Bundles are not customizable.
Description
Size and packing method: You will receive five bare root plants between 0.5-0.75 inches in diameter, carefully wrapped in damp paper towels. Plants in their succulent phase may be smaller. If selecting with soil mix(es), you will receive a little over one cup of our prepackaged Mexican Butterwort Potting Mix per bag in addition to the bare root plants. The quantity of soil in each bag is roughly enough to fill one 2.5 x 2.5 x 3.5 inch square pot.
