Despite our name, we grow much more than cacti and are always seeking to ethically  increase our small conservatory collection and production variety. We specialize in the production and development of cold hardy "exotic" or "neo-tropical" plants, dragon fruit, house plants, cacti, succulents, vanillas, and endangered species.

​​​​

Cold-Hardy Exotic & Neo-tropical crops are a generalized group of plants we grow that have exotic or tropical traits, but are cold hardy down to at least USDA climate zone 7. We currently cultivate 3 varieties of kiwi, upright prickly pear, passion fruit, figs and tumeric. We are working on the future cultivation of hopniss and paw paw. We hope to diversify the agricultural profile of sub-tropical and temperate regions and potentially provide small farms with access to non-patented varieties of cold hardy exotic crops as a potential revenue stream.

Cold-Hardy Exotic & Neo-tropical ornamentals are a generalized group of plants we are working to grow that have exotic or tropical traits, but are cold hardy down to at least USDA climate zone 7. We currently working to cultivate both yellow and red pitcher plants, cold hardy orchids, trunking yuccas, bananna, sedum, sempervivum and needle palms. The hope is to diversify the landscape profile of sub-tropical and temperate regions in a way that reflects our warming climate and is pleasing to the eye.

We currently cultivate over 30 distinct varieties of Dragon Fruit or Pitaya cacti. We specialize in intergeneric and polyploid hybrids, that is, dragon fruit hybrids between yellow dragon fruit (H. megalanthus and Selenicereus) and other Hylocereus species. Hybrids of this nature tend to have the most distinct, sweetest and most unique fruit among dragon fruit varieties.​​ The primary focus of our research is on the improvement of dragon fruit crops.

We have a wide variety of cacti and succulents available. As a general rule we avoid Euphorbia however due to their toxic latex sap. We do however have several varieites of cold hardy opuntias (prickly pears), a wide selection of epiphyllums (orchid cacti), we typically produce succulents that are low maintance and moisture tolerant.

We are currently working to cultivate various novel vanilla-bean-producing orchid species. We hope to be able to enter our vanillas into production and sale by late 2021. Vanilla is often seen as being excessively difficult to grow and thus under represented as an orchid species for home growing. 

The ethical preservation, biodiversification and dissemination of endangered or potentially endangered plant species is a primary goal for us. It is something we take very seriously. We work to ethically source, raise and affordably mass propogate many at risk species (someone has to after all). We do this for a variety of unique, remarkable or potentially useful species, but particularly cacti and orchids. Particularly some species of cold hardy american orchids, vanillas, opuntia and cacti. It is our hope that in cheaply providing these species we will take pressure off of native populations from poaching and ensure their survival by distributing them to hobbiests across the country.
