    Happily intrigued

    My first-ever Pinguicula. Arrived in pretty good shape, as always - although the promised care card wasn't included, and one of the leaves was slightly damaged. However, the plant seems none the worse for it, and has already rewarded me with a lovely flower! Looking forward to having it for a long time.

    Exceeded expectations

    The packaging that the plants came in were perfect in my mind and I love that the plants come with information leaflets that warn me about mistakes that could be made and how to care for the plants. I bought a few plants to try this shop out and they have exceeded my expectations. I will be buying again!
