Welcome to Civano Growers

Rooted just south of Tucson, Arizona, Civano Growers is known for cultivated natives and improved plant varieties built for the desert Southwest. Through innovation and careful selection, we develop plants that thrive in the region’s unique urban landscapes.

Grown for the Built Environment

At Civano Growers, we believe the future of desert landscapes starts with better genetics. We develop and grow distinctive plant selections chosen for the demands of the built environment—plants that deliver consistency, performance, and purpose where landscapes meet architecture. From cultivated natives to improved selections, our genetics are helping shape landscapes that are built to thrive in the Southwest.

Knowledge For Better Landscapes

Civano eAcademy is where landscape professionals come to learn, explore, and think differently about plants. Built with landscape architects and designers in mind, we share practical insight into plant selection, performance, new genetics, and the challenges of creating landscapes in the Southwest.

From the plants we grow to the landscapes they become, eAcademy connects the science, the design, and the real-world performance behind better plant choices

Bring Civano Growers to Your Table

Plant selection is about more than what looks good in a rendering. The right genetics can mean better performance, greater consistency, and plants that are better suited to the realities of the built environment.

Our Civano Growers Lunch & Learn brings our plants, knowledge, and experience directly to your team. We’ll walk through our unique plant selections, discuss what makes them different, and explore how improved genetics can help create landscapes that perform as beautifully as they were designed.

Whether you're an architect, landscape architect, designer, contractor, or industry professional, our Lunch & Learns are designed to be informative, relevant, and—of course—a little fun.

What to expect:

  • An introduction to Civano Growers and our genetics

  • Hands-on examples of unique and improved plant selections

  • Insight into plant performance in the built environment

  • Practical information you can take straight into your next project

  • Lunch provided by Civano​
