Unsure if this plant is healthy? You take great care in protecting plants with packaging and I take equally great care in removing the packaging. While doing this the plant lifted out of the pot and there did not appear to be any roots showing – is it normally shallow rooted? It also appears in to be turning yellow.

Thank you for so lovely review!
I wanted to explain the rooting system of carnivorous plants, especially pingu or drosera have very shallow roots and that is totally natural. Those plants grow in low nutrient environments and take most of energy from photosynthesis and absorbing bugs so don’t need extended roots system.
Pale colour of leaves is caused my semi-dormancy during winter when plants loosing slightly color and growing slower. That is this the reason why the plant was on sale, I did explain this in the listing but it’s easy to skip the part:
„ Our plants are currently on sale during their natural dormancy period. Although they are undergoing seasonal changes in appearance, they remain healthy and grow well. To see their current state, please refer to the last picture as an example. It’s important to note that these plants, due to their unique seasonal appearance, are not eligible for return or refund.”
I hope it will explain why pingu has pale leaves and short roots. Please let me know if it helps, and if you have any other questions please let us know!
