Why Buy From L&J Plant Nursery?
Since 2008, L&J Plant Nursery has grown and shipped quality tropical plants throughout the United States. Every plant is carefully selected and packaged to help ensure it arrives healthy and ready to thrive.
Please Note
These are living plants, so each XXL specimen will naturally vary in fullness, vine length, pitcher quantity, pitcher size, and coloration. Pitchers may experience cosmetic damage or dieback during shipping and acclimation. With proper care and growing conditions, healthy plants will continue producing new growth and pitchers.
Review the product description for species-specific light, watering, and placement notes. Most live plants do best with bright appropriate light, consistent watering, and protection from extreme temperatures after delivery.
L&J Nursery packs live plants carefully for shipment. Open your package promptly, check soil moisture, and acclimate the plant gradually to its new home. Some plants may be restricted by state agricultural rules.
Use the product title, photos, description, and collection links to confirm the plant type, pot size, and best use. If a listing does not answer a care or shipping question, contact L&J Nursery before ordering.
