I had ordered from them earlier this year and had such good results I recently ordered ten more plants. Very nice! If there was a super positive rating, I'd vote that.

I have ordered plants twice from California Carnivores. Both times I received my order promptly. The plants were extremely well packed, arrived in good condition, and are doing well for me. I highly recommend the owner Peter D'Amato's book 'The Savage Garden' as an excellent guide. I wish the pictures and plant descriptions on his website were as good as the ones in his book.

I received my first order March 22nd of Sarracenia flava (potted) and a sarracenia bare-root rhizome from their sale. Plants were in excellent condition, a good size with flower buds, well packed and arrived when expected. I would order again from this company.

A truly wonderful company specializing in some of the rarer carnivorous plants. I placed a sizable order with this company a couple of weeks ago and received all of my plants in great condition. They were beautifully packaged and arrived promptly and without any damage at all. I am so happy with their plants that I just placed another order!
WOW! Ordered extra-large bare-root Sarracenia off the website (a special) and got great, great plants! Quick delivery via USPS as well. Especially enjoyed the plastic fly sent with the culture directions. I will certainly order from them again, and also recommend the book if you grow carnivores.
I don't have anything to add to the previous positive remarks, except to state my whole hearted agreement. Good people, good plants. Between the book and the wonderfully healthy plants, everything I have ordered has grown much larger and I have no room to order again, or I would. Time to build that conservatory!

These folks are super. I have ordered from them three different times, and each buying experience has been excellent. The plants arrived in great shape, and were packed to be that way. Highly recommend this supplier to carnivorous plant fans.
peter, the owner, literally wrote the book on carnivorous plants (the savage garden), and they are very nice and knowlegable....and my plants looked great!
I believe this is the company which stocks the most varieties of Carnivorous Plants in the US. Firm is owned by Peter d'Amato and Marilee Maertz. They welcome drop ins but most of their business is mail order. These people are extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Peter d'Amato has been interested in these plants most all his life. I have done business with them and have been most satisfied with their help and knowledge.
