About the founder - Matt Byers

Carnivore Culture was started by Carnivorous Plant fanatic Matt Byers, who developed a love for plants at an early age! His grandparents taught him to grow flowers, herbs and vegetables. He has always been an avid gardener even before he discovered carnivores, growing countless different fruits and vegetables.

Matt has been growing and propagating carnivorous plants for nearly 15 years. His obsession started one fateful day when he drove past California Carnivores. He was drawn by their beauty, complexity, and diversity. He has been growing carnivorous plants ever since. He hopes to one day cultivate every species of the genus Drosera.
