Beginner's Plants

We often get asked which carnivorous plants are the easiest to grow. While many carnivorous plants are easy to grow, here is a selection of the best beginner's plants. These will thrill and delight anyone new to the hobby! Better still, these plants will come potted in the perfect, custom soil blend for each plant and won’t need to be repotted for a few years.

We suggest reading our book, The Revised Savage Garden, for even more information and helpful tips on how to make your carnivorous plant garden thrive. You can also follow us on YouTube for lots of informative videos on care.
