If you are a plant collector, here are a few easy to grow Carnivorous Plants
to add to your collection !

Here are a few we unpacked that just arrived !
AND THESE ARE JUST BABIES !
Though we only sell Tagalog / Filipino Language Learning courses, we thought we would let you in on some of the varieties available in the USA that are of Philippines origin and the distributors that we have bought ours from and had excellent results.

When we buy our carnivorous plants , we look for
1) Size and Healthiness
2) Quality of packaging (to insure they arrive safe and intact)
3) Then cost.

Our number one choice from several buys is:
1) (*****) Sarracenia Northwest out of Oregon. They deliver great plants that actually live and the packaging is enough to withstand a small Nuclear disaster (Well almost). They also tell you how to mix your own mixes just like the nursery they run.
They also have a CD available that covers everything you want to know about Carnivorous plants.
Plus each plant comes with a care sheet.
So it is really hard to goof up.
Actually, when we started to buy carnivorous plants, we were worried they would die like the ones you buy in Home Depot, Lowe's, the Supermarket etc. You get the drift. Well the plants we have received from them started to actually increase in size within the first 2 weeks. The selection is awesome and rotates due to the season when they are prime for shipping. So you can buy what is ready now and tag what you want in the months to come. I would recommend the 4" potted plants since they are well on their way, if you can get them before they are bought out. Worth the few extra dollars.
We give Sarracenia Northwest Five Stars ! www.CobraPlant.com
2) (****) Hortus Botanicus is our 2nd most popular supplier for carnivorous plants. They have a few more unique species to round out your collection. They package well and their plants in 4" pots are considerably large. So far they have shipped within one week after payment. Unfortunately, you need to email them at this point to get a total cost for shipping prior to payment.
But if you can not find that unique carnivorous plant, they may have it and worth the extra effort on your part.
We give Hortus Botanicus a Four Stars ! www.Hortusb.com/

If you are a plant collector, now you can Learn the Tagalog Language and bring a little of the Philippines into your home.
So far the other 2 sellers we actually bought from, at this point, do not deserve a mention since the communication, packaging and quality of plants are not any better than the dime store ones you buy in the supermarket.
So to be fair, we will not beat them up here and just suggest the ones we have had excellant transactions with.
But should they ever raise their standards, we will be happy to include them on this page.
