Charlotte, get ready for something wildly different this summer!

For one day only, Carnivorous Plants by Kenny Coogan is popping up at the Charlotte Regional Farmers Market on July 18 from 8:30 AM–1:00 PM—and they’re bringing a jungle of jaw-dropping plants with it.

Step into the strange and fascinating world of plants that eat insects. Whether you’re a seasoned collector or just plant-curious, this is your chance to see (and take home) species you won’t find at your average garden center.

Special feature: PING-A-PALOOZA — a vibrant display of large, colorful butterworts (Pinguicula) that are as beautiful as they are effective at catching gnats!

You’ll also find:
• Tropical pitcher plants (Nepenthes), including hanging baskets
• Sticky, shimmering sundews (Drosera)
• Iconic Venus flytraps
• North American pitcher plants (Sarracenia)

This is more than a plant sale—it’s a chance to see nature’s weirdest adaptations up close and learn how to grow them at home. Don’t miss this rare pop-up—once it’s gone, it’s gone!
