Carnivorous Plant Unboxing & Potting Guide

Welcome to Your Bloomify Carnivorous Plant

Thank you for choosing Bloomify.
Your carnivorous plant was carefully prepared and packed to ensure safe delivery.

Before planting, please watch the quick unboxing guide below to see exactly what you’ll receive and how to pot it step-by-step.

Follow along with the video, then use the guide below for reference.

What’s Inside Your Package

To protect delicate leaves during transit, components are packed separately.

Inside the box, you will find:

• 🌱 Live carnivorous plant (carefully wrapped inside a protective container)
• 🪴 Nursery pot
• 🌿 Three peat soil
• 📖 Care instructions

Please unwrap the plant gently to avoid damaging the leaves.

Before You Start

Prepare the following:

• A larger container (deeper than the pot)
• Distilled, rain, or reverse osmosis water
• A pair of tweezers
• A clean workspace

⚠️ Important: Only use distilled, rain, or RO water. Tap water contains minerals that can harm carnivorous plants.

Step-by-Step Potting Guide

Step 1 – Soak the Soil (About 20 Minutes)

  1. Place the peat discs into the nursery pot.

  2. Put the pot inside a larger container.

  3. Slowly add distilled water until the pot is about 80% full.

  4. Allow the peat to absorb the water completely (approximately 20 minutes).

The soil should become fully expanded, evenly moist, and free of dry spots before moving to the next step.

Step 2 – Prepare the Planting Hole

Using tweezers, gently dig a hole about 0.5 inches deep in the center of the pot.

Step 3 – Plant Gently

• Carefully place the roots into the hole
• Cover the roots with soil
• Keep the rosette (crown) above the soil surface
• Lightly press soil around the base to stabilize

Do not bury the crown.

Step 4 – Add the Humidity Cup

Place the clear cup over the plant.

This helps the plant adjust to humidity after shipping and reduces transplant shock.

Keep the cup on for approximately 2–3 weeks.

After that, you may remove it once the plant has stabilized.

What to Expect After Planting

It is normal for your plant to look slightly stressed after shipping.

Give it:

• Bright, indirect light
• Clean distilled water
• A few days to adjust

New growth will appear from the center as the plant acclimates.
