rare stuff!

Carnivorous Plant Connection is always testing new plants.  Some don’t do well and some are winners that we’ll introduce into the general inventory.

We’re currently working on lots of exciting trumpet pitcher plants that you can’t find anywhere else.  Hard-to-find hybrid pitcher plants are also a priority.  Check out our list of plants in development, there are good things to come!

If you’d like to go home with some rare stuff right now, we have dormant orchids ready to ship. They are the tuberous grass pink orchid (pink form). Plant them with your pitcher plants and in early spring the small corms should produce stalks 1 ft tall with about 4 flowers. Expect the large corms to produce stalks 2ft tall with 8-10 flowers.
