The plant came and looked adorable. Delicately packaged and safe. I only wish that the instructions for care were a little easier to understand and more thorough. I have little experience with carnivorous plants and had to do a lot of research to figure out how to care for my plant. I'm hoping it will be happier in the days ahead. It is growing quickly, but has yet to produce any dew.
