Growing Sarracenia and Venus Flytraps in the Desert Southwest

Jason Herritz started growing carnivorous plants in 2009 while living in Phoenix. Through trial and error, he found ways to successfully grow Sarracenia, Venus flytraps, and hardy sundews, despite the extreme heat, intense sunlight, and low humidity. After over a decade living in the desert Southwest, Jason decided to move the Pacific Northwest and join the nursery in 2021. If you received plants from us recently, you got to experience Jason's expert shipping technique!
