I started my career in the green industry way back in 1977 working as a grower working in Central Florida (Lake Jem) and then later at a larger nursery in Apopka. Have stayed at it ever since in one capacity or another but I never lost my passion for growing plant material! Semi-retired now (does anyone in this field ever really retire?) I've expanded my collecting into Bromeliads.......and now these interesting & unique forms that are completely different than anything else in the plant family.

Back in the good old days we didn't have the Internet so got most of our information through the mail and from libraries and institutions of learning. With the advent of the Internet - we've connected ourselves with the rest of the world. And for plant people like us.......there's much to see and even more to learn about. The world is now our oyster - to coin a phrase.

And with that our hobby is blessed with many new opportunities of expansion. For those of us who cut their teeth in the indoor foliage industry seeing how and what nursery operations like Tropiflora does is gratifying and inspirational.

This was my first transaction with Tropiflora and I was very impressed. And grateful for those on the team who made it happen. And continue to make it happens for many others day after day. Their work and dedication to their craft is commendable.

I placed my order Sunday night and my box was delivered on Tuesday. It doesn't get any better than that. Along the way I was provided updates on my order keeping me informed at each step along the way.

My next task will be to try and determine the species/variety names for my new plants. If I get stuck I may be in touch. Otherwise I look forward to exercising the brain a bit in this endeavour. Always a good thing! :)

Thank you again, happy growing, and please stay safe!

I love Tillandsias and these are no exception. Such large plants! They look so healthy! Many in spike! What a great deal! THANK YOU!

Loved all the assorted plants I received! All healthy some with new shoots some with flowers!

I loved it! It had numerous large tillandsias, some medium tillys and small tillys. I really liked the variety in sizes. Thumbs up!

Good stuff.

Wow! Just when you thought you knew everything about Dennis Cathcart! This one was hard to put down. The stories Dennis retells reminded me of the old Tropiflora Cargo Reports. Exciting, adventurous, high drama set in some of the beautiful and sometimes dangerous jungles of the world. Even a sad story here and there…I had to put the book down for the day after reading about Big Red. If you’re a fan of Tropiflora, you need to read this book!

Let them choose their bromeliads. It’s the perfect gift!

I brought my grandson there as he builds terrariums and is very interested in bromeliads and orchids. What a wonderful experience, knowledgeable friendly staff and very fair prices. After buying quite a few plants I ended up gettIng him a gift card for his birthday. Very smooth transaction. Five stars for Tropiflora ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Incredible resource for the Gardner and the gift card is an easy way to share it with others!
