Florida rare-plant nursery · open by appointment only at this time
Rare Plants… Well done.
A collector greenhouse catalogued as a living index — orchids, hoyas, rare aroids and the unusual, each specimen with its Latin name and plate number. Grown and listed since 1962.
We are unable to ship orchids out of the US due to CITES endangered-species regulations. You need to be a registered customer to order. Login or register to reserve a plant.

The nursery
A working collection,
not a big-box shelf
Tropical World is a Florida rare-plant nursery: a deep, specialist catalogue of orchids, hoyas, rare aroids, ferns and the genuinely unusual — the things the big sellers never carry.
We are unable to ship orchids out of the US due to CITES endangered-species regulations.
You need to be a registered customer to order. Login or register to reserve a plant.
Since 1974 — thank you for your business. Bruce Pearson, Michael Marino, Kristy Coale.
