Plant sizes
- Whether you prefer starting off with a younger plant and watching it grow over the years into full majestic glory or jumping in with more munch, right from the get go, we've got you covered! Cultivo is all about choices and our plants are available in various sizes and options to suit your every need
- These are 3+ year old (3-5cm) to 5+ years (near-flowering size) plants, sold either bareroot or ready to grow - already potted in our deluxe carnivorous plant soil, without the need for repotting and acclimatisation on your end. The size on offer refers to the maximum size your plant will reach during the upcoming growing season
Bareroot and potted options
- Potted plants are sent with a protective covering and will be good in this soil for another 6-9 months. Planter sizes are selected in relation to plant size and range from 7.5cm to 12cm pots unless otherwise mentioned
- Bareroot plants are for those who wish to pot up and acclimatise their own plants. Plants and winter bulbs are cleaned, cut back, rinsed and sent in a protective covering with roots wrapped in damp paper towels

Restock Alerts
- Because Cultivo is a boutique-style store, most of our collector’s plants are one-of-a-kind “exact plant pictured” or limited seasonal releases. That means once they’re sold, they’re gone - so standard restock notifications aren’t practical here
- A few seasonal plants or variants of small-batch releases may return in the future. If that happens, we’ll update the original listing with new photos and details
- 🔔 For instant updates on new and rare arrivals, subscribe to our WhatsApp Channel and keep an eye on the New Arrivals Collection
