Adorable and tiny...but delicate!
Absolutely precious! The sundew arrived safe and sound, looks very healthy! I'm so excited to add this to my carnivorous plant collection. This would be my second sundew, the first is now over three years old. Once roots form, she'll be planted next to her sister.Edit 10/15/23: It grew mold, however I saved it! I used sterilized eyebrow tweezers to carefully remove the plant from the growing medium, which seems to be a kind of agar, removed any moldy bits I saw, and carefully transfered it into a bigger sealed terrarium with peat moss. After that I was diligent to remove any mold that formed over the course of a few days. A week later, everything looks great! No mold came back, and the little plant seems more lively. You can try my method if your plant hasn't been taken over by mold yet, just be very careful about any developing roots, they're almost like fine hair, use only distilled water or reverse osmosis water when you clean or water it. Tap water can be too harsh.

Five Stars Just for the Concept
I received mine quick. It was sent immediately, and shipped via USPS, so it usually means within 3 days. It arrived with no heating pad, but I guess that the 60 days live guaranty is as good as a heating pad. The plant appears to be alive. It is small within a small glass container the size of a small snow globe. The plant is set in grow medium so it stayed intact during transit. Hopefully, it will survive long enough for life outside the container.Oh, BTW for people deciding between the sundew and the venus flytrap, my research suggests that the sundew is lower maintenance outside the globe. For the sundew, all I need to do is to place it near a window.Update: It has been a month. The sundew has grown a little. No mold. Yeah, I like it. I will probably order other plants soon now that it is getting warmer.Another update: a white fuzz appeared after 44 days. I emailed the seller with a photo, and I have a replacement a week later. The replacement is a little leaky with some solution leaking from the container. I cannot see any crack on the container, and the plant inside looks fine. It is informative to compare the original plant with the replacement. The original is about 10x larger. So, it must have grown. I am facing the white fuzz of the original towards the window, hopefully the sunshine will slow its growth while I get the necessary soil, etc. to try to rescue it. BTW, outside the container, carnivorous plants are a little involved to maintain. They need special soil, and distill water. I am not hopeful with my skills to keep them alive outside the container. But, I will give it a try.Yet another update: It is now past day 60. After turning the mold part of the Terrarium towards the sunlight, the sunlight appears to have limited its growth. The white fuzz appears to have disappeared, replaced by a white patch. My observation is that this plant needs a lot of light. I believe that plants, mold and algae are in a constant battle when they are in a confined space. One will do well at the expense of others. So, let your terrarium get some sunlight.

Died in a week
Was barely alive to begin with and then died within a week. Iâve had this issue with every one of these little self sustaining terrariums Iâve gotten from this company including Venus fly trap, sundew, and a cactus. I had high hopes for all of them especially the cactus which they did replace once but even the new one didnât stay alive and Iâm not doing anything that would cause them to die so unfortunately I would not recommend getting one of these. I would have absolutely loved it if any of the 3 I bought would have lasted especially the cactus one but they just donât. Not worth the money

It's alive
Very cute but very small. After reading reviews. I filled cup with distilled water. Removed them from jelled domes, Let them sit in distilled cup of wtr as they sat while I cleaned and dried domes and bases of domes very well with a paper towel. I swirled them in the distilled water a little and removed as much jell as possible. Washed domes(they are to cute to cast aside).and dried very well. Refilled one dome and another planter with a dome with fly trap soil and sargum moss.I planted smallest plant back into original dome. Using spray bottle sprayed sides of domes. Put them under timed lighting for at least eleven totwelve hours a day. They are thriving.I can see growth.

So cute & tiny!
Update 9/9/23: I haven't attempted to open this, followed the care instructions that came with it on the care card and did further research on the internet and my fb houseplant groups. It's now dying. So, know if you're getting this that it might only live 2 months. It was nowhere close to outgrowing the container either, in fact, I measured no growth from the time it arrived.I'll be sticking to my own home made tiny terrariums and will re-use this container for another plant.It arrived today carefully wrapped in bubble wrap and in a small heavy weight small cardboard box. There was enough packing material for the plant to remain static so it arrived unharmed.This is a cute tiny plant and would be perfect in the miniature forest terrarium setting that I'm in the process of building. It looks so healthy and exactly like a tiny Venus Flytrap. It is a live plant too! I'll be buying more tiny plants from this seller soon.

Itâs not dead? Update đ
Update: It is dead. The dreaded rot other reviewers mentioned developed. So, downgrading this. A weird paperweight that is most likely going to die within months makes for a depressing gift to give most folks.Didnât realize this was a carnivorous plant until I got it. I havenât attempted to feed it or open it. Have had it for monthsâŠitâs not dead but it doesnât seem to be growing and there is a lot of condensation on half the dome. Havenât seen any black stuff growing like other reviewers have mentioned so yay?
