About MD Plants

From one windowsill flytrap to a collection worth sharing.

Colorful Sarracenia pitcher plants
Venus flytraps on a windowsill

Every collection starts with one plant. MD Plants started the way most carnivorous plant collections do: with a single Venus flytrap and a lot of curiosity. A few years (and many divisions, seedlings and greenhouse shelves) later, the collection outgrew the windowsill.

Instead of scattering plants across marketplace listings, we built a proper home for them. Every plant here is grown by us in pure water and nutrient-free media, photographed honestly, and packed by the same hands that potted it.

Buying your first flytrap or hunting a specific cultivar? Let's talk plants.

01

Year one

A single supermarket Venus flytrap on a kitchen windowsill. It survived (barely).

02

Year three

Sarracenia, sundews and a first greenhouse shelf. Learned the hard way about tap water.

03

Year five

Seed-grown hybrids, hundreds of divisions, and friends asking to buy spares.

04

Today

MD Plants: the collection, finally with a proper home online.

Shipping live plants

Plants usually travel bare-root, wrapped in damp sphagnum moss. That's the safest way to ship carnivores and how growers worldwide do it.

Shipped early in the week

Orders ship Monday to Wednesday so plants never sit in a depot over the weekend.

Weather-watched

During heatwaves or hard frosts we hold orders (and let you know) until it's safe to ship.

Live arrival guarantee

If a plant arrives damaged, send a photo within 48 hours and we'll replace or refund it.
