Based
in Christchurch, New Zealand, we have been cultivating carnivorous
plants for over eighteen years. Our passion for these curious insect-eating
plants has seen our collection expand considerably during this time,
and in 1996 Carnivorous Plant Nurseries became a commercial venture.
Our
plants have attracted considerable interest both nationally and
internationally, and for this reason we have set up this website
to further expand our customer base and to provide a greater audience
with more information about carnivorous plants.
Find
out who we are (and see our photos!) in our about
us section. Please submit enquiries about purchasing any of
our plants in our contact us section,
as well as any other general enquiries. In our
nursery we have provided information about the plants we grow,
how we grow them and the climate here in Christchurch, New Zealand.
View our catalogue to see a list
of plants we currently offer for sale, as well as our wholesale
pricelist. In our plant info
section we have photos and relevent information on the different
types of carnivorous plants that we offer for sale. Our growing
guide offers useful tips on how to look after these plants.
View our tissue culture section to find
out about how we also use this means to cultivate our plants. Our
books & misc section contains some
great books on carnivorous plants which we have sourced very cheaply,
as well as other miscellaneous items of interest. We have also provided
a useful list of interesting links in our links
section.
EVENTS DIARY!
Yes! We will be
putting on another superb display at the Christchurch
A & P Show!
Last year the
show attracted 109,000 people. Our display will be as impressive
as that figure!
Additionally,
this year we will be at the Manderley Home
and Garden Festival on the 8th and 9th of November 2008.

Show again. The Culverden Show is a really
cultured and fun place. Hope to see you there too!
