The Fang & Folium Advantage
It Starts With The Substrate
Unless otherwise noted, plants are never shipped in sphagnum moss alone - they come potted in clear, round nursery pots with appropriate substrate ready for you to enjoy.
No re-potting is required for minimum 1 year! In fact, we highly suggest you avoid repotting your plant for at least 3 months to ensure successful acclimatization to its new environment.
Small Home-Based Nursery - No Imports or Re-Sales
Fang & Folium is focused on rare tropical plants and bioactive vivarium supplies. All plants are lovingly grown in my small home-based nursery in Newfoundland and Labrador, propagated from my own collection.
While no grower can say with certainty that their plants are 100% pest-free, I am dedicated to maintaining a nursery that prides itself on prevention and proactive treatment. I regularly inspect and treat plants with bioactive methods such as nematodes and predatory mites and I don't purchase plants from big box stores.
Some plants may also be treated with insecticidal soap or pyrethrin pesticide (Safer's End All), and as such I always recommend you wash the foliage of any plant before introducing it to a bioactive vivarium.
Canadian Collectors
Canada-wide shipping is available, with free local delivery and pick-up options for the greater St. John's area.
Healthy Colonies
Our colonies are kept small and regularly inspected for health. They are fed healthy diets of fresh vegetables and fruits as well as a mix of protein such as dry dog kibble and fish flakes.
High Demand
Discoid roaches at Fang & Folium are in very high demand! This is because we keep our prices competitive and are one of only a few sellers offering Canada-wide shipping for roaches.
Unfortunately, this means that we sell out quickly. If you would like to be notified of our next Discoid Roach restock, click "Notify me when available" on the product page.
