Customer Reviews
as described
The seeds come with exact planting instructions. These are more complicated than I expected, including a cooling period. However, I followed the instructions, and about 1/2 of the seeds sprouted. These have been very slow to grow and I had a few fatalities transplanting. I now have two very cute Purple Pitcher Plant sprouts, about 1/2" tall. This was a really fun project.
This process took nearly eight months, so if you want fast results I suggest you follow the vendor name, above, and purchase a small plant instead. See also my review for Akai Ryu Red Dragon Venus Fly Trap Plant - Dionaea.
Plant didnt grow at all
I got these seeds a while ago, and i bought a ton of expensive things to simulate its climate perfectly and not one sprouted. I didnt exactly what they told me to do and i started to wait. And nothing.
