💬 At Cultivo, you’re not just buying a plant — you’re becoming part of a journey.
This is a space for plant lovers, collectors, and curious beginners who want more than just a quick sale. It’s about growing something special, learning along the way, and being part of a community that cares.
Cultivo is the home of rare and exotic carnivorous plants —
From jaw-dropping Venus flytraps to unique Nepenthes hybrids, personally sourced from top international growers, then fully acclimatised and established right here in South Africa.
Cultivo is a specialised online shop filled with meaning —
Every plant is either grown from seed, divided from my own collection, or nurtured through import with months of patience and care. This isn’t mass production. It’s personal, deliberate and done with heart.
Cultivo is lasting quality and unmatched variety —
We offer the largest range of rare and collectible carnivorous plants in South Africa — from seed-grown originals to rare imports sourced from top global growers. Since SA has very few native species, we’ve spent over 15 years building a one-of-a-kind, diverse collection — and we’re now bringing the best from around the world to you, without the import costs or risk
Cultivo is clarity and transparency —
You’re never buying a nameless plant here. Every order is clearly labelled with a proper ID tag, so you always get exactly what you ordered. Plants are also listed with seasonal notes and current appearance details — so there are no surprises when your plant arrives.
Cultivo is support when you need it most —
With one-on-one consultations, expert care guides, and honest advice tailored for South African conditions. Whether you're just starting out or building your dream terrarium, we’re here to help your plants thrive.
Cultivo is a place to learn and connect —
Through hands-on workshops and masterclasses where you can pot, divide, mount, and build beautiful carnivorous plant displays with confidence.
Cultivo is also available in-store —
Through trusted retail partners who stock a small but mighty range of our plants for walk-in shopping experiences. No walk-in carnivorous plant shop exists in SA — but this is the next best thing.
Most of all: Cultivo is personal —
Every plant is handled by me, start to finish. No middlemen. No shortcuts. Just one grower sharing a lifelong passion — and helping you grow something extraordinary, one plant at a time.
