Legal Question in Employment Law in Arizona

Ok, so my father is an employee at a "plant (flowers) nursery", they sell wholesale and on some occasion to the public. Ok so he works ridiculous hours that sometimes range from 80-100 hrs. per week. Heres the problem, they dont pay him overtime! I tried looking up labor laws and I understand there are numerous exemptions to this law but i could not find where his occupation would fit into any of those categories. Therefore my question is, Should he be getting paid overtime?
