Ships bareroot. You will need to provide your own pot and more potting substrate when the plant arrives. Extra care will be needed as the pre-order plants will need to be acclimated slowly to your conditions. This means low light and high humidity initially. Check out this video that I helped write for the ICPS on “How to acclimate your carnivorous plants.” To see the size and quality of our imports watch this video.
