Predatory Plants is a specialized nursery and cultivation facility based in Half Moon Bay, California, dedicated exclusively to the propagation and sale of carnivorous plants.

In addition to live plants, the company offers essential horticultural supplies, including specialized growing media like New Zealand long-fiber sphagnum moss and specific pots required for carnivorous plant health. The nursery maintains a professional, research-oriented approach to plant care, focusing on optimal greenhouse conditions to ensure high-quality, resilient specimens.

I ordered the “starter kit”, 3 plants, as a Christmas gift for my daughter. They didn’t arrive until mid January! And they were frozen solid. I emailed the company and was told they would send new plants once the weather warmed up. It is now the end of April and I still haven’t received my plants! I have emailed 3 times and left multiple phone messages and have never gotten a reply. I want my plants or my $55 back. Next step is to report them to the Better Business Bureau.

I have ordered 2 Sundews and a Venus Fly Trap from here. All 3 plants came carefully packed and were delivered in a timely manner. All plants also came with care instructions that are easy to follow. I can’t wait to buy more plants from here. Great experience!

Bought some plants from them, I got tiny little plants that still havent opened their traps despite following all of the proper methods to care for them. I've sent 3 emails about it with no response from the company. It was my second purchase from them. They are overpriced, bought two more plants from from a local store that were much bigger and healthier for half the price. Purchase at your own risk...
