Carnivorous Plants
The majority of our carnivorous plants and companions are hardy to at least zone 6 and are native plants of the United States. A simple recipe for success is full sun, mineral free water, and the right media. These unique curious botanical offerings will inspire a personal addictive passion in anyone who has success maintaining them in captivity.
