I got a sundew here just under a month ago, and it began to outgrow its container. Sundews and such need special soil to thrive. We Bite will repot your plants for you, so you don’t have to buy a whole thing of special mix if you don’t need it. They repotted my sundew in their carnivorous plant mix for $3, and it took like thirty seconds. I don’t know of any other plant store that will do that for you. Also, the person working was giving me plant advice the whole time. It was the same way the first time I went. These people know their stuff. We’re lucky to have a local spot offering plants like these. Lots of people can only buy this stuff online. 10/10 recommend

I went in to buy some indoor plants and was blown away by their incredible selection of exotic varieties. I mean this in the most respectful way possible they’re total plant nerds, and it’s clear this is a genuine passion for them. I learned more about plants in 30 minutes than I ever knew before! Their knowledge is seriously impressive. They didn’t just want to sell me a plant they genuinely wanted it to thrive and took the time to explain everything in detail. I thoroughly enjoyed my visit and will definitely be back!
