In more than 40 ha production area: highest quality seeds, plants in pots and unique large plants up to 10 metres high for garden and landscape design.
The ideal climate of the Island led Norbert Kropf, owner and founder of the company Canary Cactus S.A. to plant here the first cacti more than 25 years ago.
He has over 40 years experience which along with constant research and his innovating line of thought have positioned Canary Cactus among the leaders in the market worldwide. The genetic pool, constantly optimized through continuous selection, is the result of this work of development carried out throughout the years.
