The plants were package very well. They arrived in perfect shape even though they had a delay shipping
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 was given a copy by the creator of the book and it’s a must have for tropical enthusiasts!
Nice specimen, received as stated in description. Staff is always
knowledgeable and helpful.
Thanks for the speedy delivery , The offset looks good, is now in water and the roots are loosening nicely. I have my fingers crossed. Back in the 70s I had a very large specimen of this plant and absolutely reveled in its beauty. I hope to live long enough to see this one flower...
Arrived quickly and in perfect condition. A pup that I am looking forward to growing up.
Tillandsia 'Marvelous Masterpiece' is a beautifully shaped healthy plant. Even though the shipping box had been partially smashed, the plants inside were well packaged and undamaged. Thank you, Tropiflora!
I love Tillandsias and these are no exception. Such large plants! They look so healthy! Many in spike! What a great deal! THANK YOU!
This McDreamy is dream of a dark beauty!!! So thrilled with this Cryptanthus! Plant was shipped quickly, arrived in perfect conditions, and extremely well packaged, with much love and care.
Shipping, if you live in Florida, occurs rather quickly!!! Super happy about that....BUT, this Eternal LOVE is stunning!!!!!! The rich colors and how large it is captured me instantly! Truly a rare beauty.....
My Durrell is amazingly lush and gorgeously green! For being an offset, she is LARGE and long!!!! Thrilled with my newest addition!
The size and appearance of this Bromeliad exceeded my expectations. The coloration of the one I received is a little darker than the photo - yellowish more than cream accents. I realize that could change based on light level at my home. Tropiflora is my preferred source!
I just found Tropiflora this year and I find myself waiting for the next plant shipment. I have been more than satisfied with the care taken in packing and shipping their plants. The communication is quick and well accepted. Thank You for everything. Debbie
I previously purchased this plant two years ago. My first purchase was a test. I hope the five that I just purchased, also thrive
I love 'Midnite Fantasy'! The patterning is actually a plaid; very unique, colorful and attention-grabbing.
