Will these grow in South Florida? Are there instructions on how to plant, when, what type of soil, etc? I was curious because it said "Northwest"

With the right type of soil they will grow anywhere. May have an issue in northern US or Canada with the shorter growth seasons. No instructions for growing are included. You will need to do your own research on best methods. We grew several types in planters in the backyard this summer. All grew well and we are near the US border in the center of Canada

I'm not sure but I bet they will. Mine are still stored in the freezer. I think these were selected to be grown in any moderate or warm zones.

o, please ignore previous answer! I was answering about another packet of seeds I bought. most of these seeds should grow in warmer climates, you would just start planting earlier than you would in a more moderate to cold climate.

no instructions, although herbs can be grown pretty much anywhere. I was unimpressed with the amount of seeds in some of the packets though. because they are sold by weight you get tons of the small seeds (oregano, majoram, mint) and barely any large seeds (chives, basil, cilantro).

Mine grew quite nicely. You will need to make sure that the soil is well over 50 degrees Fahrenheit when you plant. Water well. They do not like bright direct sunlight. I keep mine on the front porch in diffused sunlight in a large potThe majority of the pound that I planted, grew. It is very similar to ginger for the upkeep.

I haven't planted mine yet. Sometime I have trouble starting them too. I had one that took a year to come up. I have sandy soil which i think they like. May be start them in pots for protection and let them seed naturally where you want then to go. I know they don't transplant well.

I live in the Sarasota area and have been having very good luck with them. In September I didn't plant them in full sun. My cucumbers were huge. My cherry tomatoes were the size of my palm.

Some bloomed the 2nd year.....two died.....but I leave them out all winter. It got down to 15 degrees here in N Fl. Rest are doing fine. They are small varieties.

hello I am not quite sure our plants have gone into "shrub mode" they have grown a whole bunch and we have trimmed them but still have not even bloomed im not sure how long it takes but they are supposed to produce fruit in all zones, im sure they will produce in Fla. so good luck if you still have a problem im sure Hirts could answer them better than I could.

Don't see why not. However, not sure because I just planted mine in North West Arkansas 4 weeks ago. Instructions mention that they come as late as June and you may not have any the first season. I don't have any yet. I would think June in Arkansas is April in Florida. Order now and plan on next April. We can always hope to be lucky this year.

I think you will find that it will thrive in your area. The largest vine I ever saw was at the corner of South St. & Duvall in Key West. It was very healthy and quite fragrant in April and May. Someone removed it several years ago unfortunately. I plan to plant several in Miami.

I have three of these plants that are in their first year of growth (South Florida). Heat, humidity, full sun, no problem. Growth is rapid and currently they are flowering. My research indicated that these plants are hardy, even for short periods of time at freezing temps. San Diego would probably be an excellent environment to grow these wonderful berries. Good luck and post a follow up in six months to let us know.

That's where they should grow best. Especially northern Midwest and Canada. This was a very small plant they sent though. The one I got did not survive.

There were instructions with the seeds on how to plant them but I don't remember if there were any instructions on how to grow them inside. sorry

Allison, contact Joel immediately. Use only distilled water, not spring water, not tap water and water it in a saucer. Fill it up about 1/3 of the way. That being said, did you check your email? Joel sent a detailed email before our plant arrived. I contacted him a few times and he was extremely helpful and fast to respond. Here's his email address: JoelsCarnivorousPlants - Amazon Marketplace lk5mjrd052j6cyv@marketplace.amazon.com I cut and pasted his directions in the initial email below: I will be shipping your order to you Saturday. Look for it to arrive in your mail beginning this Monday. If you have cold weather forecast for the next few days please be careful to take your order indoors soon after it arrives and not to leave it in a mailbox outside overnight if you receive your mail in a receptacle that is outside so that your plant will not be damaged/killed by frost. If your plants are damaged by frost anyways in spite of my best efforts at timing the shipping for your order please let me know asap. If it is below freezing where you are at your order may come with a heat pack. The heat pack is a white bag with red line on it. This heat pack is not part of the potting soil. Please be careful to NOT mix it in with your moss that your plant arrives with. If you are purchasing this as a gift it will be important to pot it up right after it arrives rather than leaving it in the box it came in for a while. If you purchased more than one plant they may be wrapped together. If you have any problems with your plant(s) or its shipping please feel free to contact me. I'm here to help. If you like what you see when your order arrives you can see more Carnivorous Plants that I have for sale here.--&gt;
