About Me

Even though I call my hobby Shop of Little Horrors it is not a nursery, just a personal collection in the back of my garden. The name came form the Little Shop of Horrors theatre production that I saw when I was 15. I found a Sarracenia on sale outside the venue. I jumped at the chance to have my very own Audrey, which turned out to be Sarracenia x Excellens. Soon enough I had a whole collection going!

 

Over time I started doing local Sunday markets which in turn gave me more money to buy more plants! :) I was able to grow most of the major families, I just wish I had taken more photos back then. Then University started and I began to focus on other things.

 

20+ Years later after moving to NZ I got my first Sarracenia from a local store and fell in love with them all over again. My goal is to try, in time, is to try make some of these these plants less rare in NZ. I am really passionate about my hobby and I hope to encourage the younger generation to build an interest and love for them too!
