I sell limited quantities of rare and beautiful Nepenthes pitcher plants, raised for sale in my personal greenhouse. This includes a mixture of seed-grown species and hybrids.

Temporarily Closed!

Thanks for your interest in buying from Tom's Carnivores! Sadly the impact of Brexit combined with the Coronavirus pandemic forced me to close my online shop. I plan to reopen in the future with a variety of Nepenthes raised from seed in my greenhouse, including many of my own crosses.

Until then, I'll be doing occasional sales and trades within the UK. To be notified when I have plants available for sale or trade, I recommend following me on Instagram or Facebook.
