Our Story
Growing Something Special in Calgary
Liza’s Plants YYC began with a simple love of growing things. What started as a personal passion for gardening and collecting interesting plant varieties gradually grew into a small Canadian seed shop dedicated to sharing unique seeds with other gardeners.
Based in Calgary, Alberta, we know firsthand the challenges and rewards of gardening in a northern climate. Short growing seasons, cool nights, and unpredictable weather make choosing the right varieties important. That’s why we carefully select seeds that perform well for Canadian gardeners while also offering something a little special.
Our goal is simple: to help people grow beautiful, productive gardens—no matter how big or small their space may be.
A Love for Rare and Unique Varieties
One of the things that makes Liza’s Plants YYC unique is our focus on interesting and hard-to-find varieties. We love discovering plants that bring something new to the garden—whether it’s unusual colours, compact growth habits, or exceptional flavour.
Our collection includes:
- Rare micro dwarf tomatoes perfect for windowsills and small spaces
- Beautiful flowers for pollinators like bees and butterflies
- Hardy plants suited for Canadian climates
- Herbs, vegetables, and specialty varieties that are difficult to find in big stores
Many of our varieties are chosen specifically because they are well suited to container gardening, balcony gardens, and small urban spaces.

Supporting Local Gardening
As a small Canadian business, we believe in supporting local gardeners and encouraging people to reconnect with nature through growing plants.
Gardening brings joy, patience, and a sense of accomplishment. Watching a tiny seed grow into a thriving plant is one of the simplest and most satisfying experiences.
We’re grateful to be part of that journey for gardeners across the country.
