The magic of plant pairings: Thoughts on success!

Are you passionate about plants that are out of the ordinary, whether they’re carnivorous or exotic? Are you looking to create harmonious plant arrangements without making life too complicated? Our ‘Duos’ section is just the thing for you!

We know that one of the biggest challenges in gardening is getting plants with similar care requirements to thrive together. Too much sun for one, too much moisture for the other, and disaster is guaranteed...

That’s why we’ve selected pairs of plants for you that get on brilliantly, both in terms of care and aesthetics.

The secret behind Karnivores’ Duos

The ‘Duos’ section features packs of two (sometimes three) plants designed to thrive together. Each Duo meets strict criteria:

1. Cultivation Compatibility: Both species have similar requirements in terms of light, watering (rainwater/demineralised or otherwise), growing medium and dormant periods. They can therefore share the same pot, saucer or terrarium.
2. Visual Harmony: We combine contrasting shapes and colours to create an immediate decorative impact. The upright growth habit of a flamboyantly coloured Sarracenia alongside the sticky, creeping leaves of a Drosera, for example!
3. Easy for Beginners: Many of our duos feature species renowned for their hardiness and tolerance, making them ideal for newcomers wishing to get started with a beautiful arrangement.

Why choose a duo?

• Value for money**:** The Duo pack is always better value than buying the two plants separately.
• Time-saving: No need to search for and compare care guides – we’ve done it for you!
• Inspiration: It’s a great way to learn how to combine different species to create long-lasting arrangements.
