My plant arrived in perfect condition with a heat pack. It's growing great, I've had it a little over a week and I can already see growth. Very happy with this purchase.

I ordered this plant for my 11 year old who is very interested in Venus fly traps. Unfortunately the first plant arrived dead. However, I contacted the seller and they promptly sent a replacement and it looks great! Excellent customer service. We are very excited to watch this grow.

It is cute but isn't the size I supposed.

I've had it 6 months, followed all the instructions, but no growth of any kind

I just unboxed my little flytrap . It looks very healthy. And yes, it's teeny: that's the point! If I wanted a big one, I could have gotten that at my local nursery. The pictures clearly show its adorable teenyness.But that part is pretty much exactly what I expected. What I didn't expect was the level of customer service they give. My order was supposed to be delivered a few days ago. Well, it was delivered, all right -- but even the Postmaster can't figure out who it was delivered TO. Definitely to someone on the wrong side of town, though. (USPS, you had one job!) I'm trying to get some results filing forms with the USPS, but meanwhile, I contacted Bloomify to ask them to poke the USPS from their end, as frequently the shipper gets better results than the recipient when trying to track lost packages. Well, they did a lot better than that -- they sent me a whole new plant (by UPS this time!) even though it was no fault of theirs that my original one was mis-delievered to some random person who wasn't honest enough to give it back to the Post Office. That is service above and beyond. Once I move (I really don't want to haul any more plants than I already have, including an 8' ficus, halfway across the country!) you'd better believe I'll be ordering some more plants from these folks. Jewel orchids in particular come to mind.

I've done my best to wait for the full cycle to be completed prior to leaving my review. I ordered two of these particular domes along with a nepenthe, and two sundews. This review is for the Venus Flytrap products in particular.Primary Issue: Venus Flytraps have very distinct behaviors -- one of which is that when a VFT will often bury itself deeper within its environment if under certain conditions. One of the domes was breached, two of the traps I was sent ended up burying themselves deeper into the gel solution, which appears to be a major flaw in the design for these. While the seller was great about replacing them without any hassle, these VTF domes seem to have ~30% failure rates.Note: The attached picture shows what I'm describing. The first time it happened I thought it was a fluke and the seller replaced it no problem, then it happened two more times.Once they grow to this size is where the real problem comes in. The transplant guides on Bloomify show someone yanking clusters out aggressively with a pair of tweezers and saying 'plant the ones that still have roots.' The problem is that the biogel they're using once the dome is breached molds within 72 hours. If any of the gel is left on any of the plant, the substance can and will mold -- resulting in the plant dying.The picture I've included separated into 5 different clusters, and about 15 smaller clippings. The gel itself is very difficult to get off -- I've transplanted three of the VTF domes in an attempt to save them after this happened -- Two of the failed domes survived completely, but after an invasive recovery operations, I was able to save both of them entirely.The last transplant I did (from the picture included), 3/5 of the clusters made it past five days, the other two died from the mold+biogel issue. From the clippings, 3/15 have begun growing additional clusters.All in all the project was successful, I've netted about 9 new traps and two of the entire clusters are continuing to expand after transplant. The overall price tag was ~$30. These products absolutely work, but they need additional documentation, video, instruction, and examples of what to do and not to do if you're going to be successful with them after 30 days. If you're planning on buying one as a gift, set the expectation that it's eye candy for 1-2 months, and that the actual transplanting is *NOT* for the faint of heart.

Edit: Promptly after posting this review I was contacted by the seller and sent a replacement immediately. I absolutely LOVE my replacement Venus Fly Trap. Although my initial review was extremely negative, the sellers customer service and willingness to help solve the problem is worthy of my recanting everything I said before. I would just warn anyone looking to buy this, to completely follow the sellers instructions that are included in the package. I do have to say I was a bit upset when I wrote the previous review but after receiving my new Venus fly trap, I completely vouch for this product. It’s the perfect way to keep a plant alive if you don’t have a green thumb. Never open the cork because it will be contaminated and mold WILL grow. I also recommend keeping the heat seal on it as well for added protection. The seller seems to always be willing to work with you so if something does go wrong, I recommend contacting them before posting a review or if you posted a review, making sure to update it cos these guys really do deserve five stars. They go out of their way to immediately offer you a new product or a refund. The least I felt I could do was update this review.Old Review: I was so excited about this only to be extremely disappointed. I really wanted to LOVE this but I'm so let down. The gel medium isn't even gel at this point and the liquid is covering the entire plant. The roots aren't even submerged in the liquid, it's practically upside down. I don't know what to even do at this point cos it seems too young for me to take it out of the jar and plant it. And that's not the reason I bought it in the first place, I finally wanted to have a Venus that would survive and this seemed like the best way and to also have a cute and quirky decoration. I don't know if I could recommend this to anyone because what I expected isn't what I received at all. This isnt a good product at all.
