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.
