Please comment here when you have read your message. Remember, the secret part of Secret Santa is not knowing until you receive the gift. You can reveal your true identity after that if you so choose.

Ho, ho, ho! There a few packages on the way and I know the rest are in the works. Remember, once you receive your package, please post a note here with a thank you to your Santa. If you would like to share some unboxing photos, please do.

I received my Secret Santa prizes today, and I’m so excited! I got three (very well packed and insulated, btw) super-cool flytraps! Check out those teeth!

  • Bohemian Garnet
  • CCCP Razor Blade
  • Clumping VFT

Aaand a really kind letter! :) <3

Aaaaand a little elf told me that there is something more to come! :o

Thank you so much, Santa! I love them all!

I got my Secret Santa presents today! I was very impressed because despite the box being damaged and the mail taking it everywhere but my house everything looks absolutely perfect! High five Santa!

I received -

- some live moss which is totally awesome as I’ve been wanting to try growing this for awhile

- some VFT Sawtooth which has been on my wishlist for some time now

Sorry the photo looks a bit blurry. I have tremors so it happens

- and a Drosera Adelae. The interesting thing is I don’t think I put this on my wishlist because I don’t have any drosera that have really jumped out at me (except the Regia because of course!), but it seems like drosera is a plant that I just need to see in person or something. I very much LOVE the look of this plant!

All in all these were beautiful and awesome gifts, so thank you so much Santa! For the presents and the care you took in packing them.

:D :D :D

A heads up on the adelae, you may want to read up on it. It does best in high humidity and lower light levels. Given those conditions, it is a great grower and spreads easily by roots.

Oh for sure I will definitely be checking best practices for everything but the Sawtooth. From what I read so far it doesn’t need dormancy right?

Thanks for the advice too :D
