6. Shipping Dormant Plants
Please note, our plants are dormant outside the growing season (which may vary depending on species) and may appear DOA. We suggest potting dormant plants and allowing them to remain dormant, keeping the soil moist throughout dormancy. They'll begin growing in the spring, usually around April - May.
Dormant Sarracenia always ship with the pitchers trimmed off.
