About us

A small Arizona nursery for rare carnivorous plants

Canyon Exotics is a small, grower-run nursery in Chandler, Arizona, specializing in rare carnivorous plants, with a focus on Mexican Pinguicula (butterworts) alongside sundews and other genera.

Every plant we sell is grown in-house. Many start as tissue cultures in our lab, then are grown out and only listed once they are healthy, rooted, and ready to thrive in your care. We do not resell or dropship. If it is on our site, we grew it.

We started with Mexican Pinguicula and are steadily expanding into sundews, Nepenthes, and other carnivorous genera. Because we are a small operation, our roster changes as plants become available.

Shipped with care

Orders ship bare-root via USPS, packed to arrive safe and hydrated. Orders of $75 or more ship free. We have happily delivered hundreds of plants, earning a 4.8-star track record from customers on Etsy.
