This was a great gift for a friend

I am completely satisfied with the items I purchased and I’m satisfied with the delivery time that was given finally Walmart

Plant did great inside the glass bottle. Once it was to the point of being too big for the bottle I transplanted to carnivorous plant soil. I removed using the tweezer method, got the plants out and separated into about 8 little plants. rinsed the roots to get off all of the gel, planted and it looked great for a couple days. On day 3-4 half of the plants turned black. and by the end of the 1st full week, I only had 1 very tiny plant left.As of writing this, its been 3 weeks and I still have only 1 very tiny plant left, and the 'mouth' has not opened for feeding, not sure if it will or if it will eventually just die too.so sad :(

Cute, but I wish the bottle was bigger so I could keep them in there longer since it seems they have a low survival rate after transplantation. Mine were healthy. I still love them..

My first plant was DOA, it was really cold when I ordered it&it was left in mailbox overnight with no heat pack. But I requested a refund & was sent a new plant with a heating pack. It has flourish & I just removed it from glass jar. I seen alot of people inquiring on removal without damaging the trap. I took the jar, wrapped it in a towel& let it hit the floor. It made a pop noise& waalaa, plant was free& glass contained. Rinsed it with warm water, now its drying before I put it in its new home..

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.

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.
