Orchids are among the oldest plants found on earth. Through countless eons, orchids have grown and adapted to their environment. They grow on every continent other than Antarctica. Orchids are not all tropical. Many find their habitat high on frigid mountains. Others grow deep in the shade of the jungle floor. Some cling to rock faces. Some like the murky mud of the river bank. Every state in the US has a variety of native orchids, yes, even Alaska! According to James Alexander Fowler, in his book Wild Orchids of South Carolina, there are at least fifty-five native varieties in my home state of South Carolina.
Orchid growing can be a wonderful experience. Some people prefer to grow a particular type of orchid, while others tend to grow a variety of species. Actually, the orchid is a relatively easy plant to grow - as long as you know a few basic facts for the type orchid you desire to grow, and provide the orchid with the environment it desires. The best part of growing orchids is when you wake up one morning and walk through your orchids and see that beautiful flower on a plant that you hadn't realized was even in bud!
My collection has grown over the past 30 plus years that I have grown orchids. Yes, I do sell some orchids, but there are some in my greenhouse that just aren't for sale! Some are rare, but, even more valuable to me are the few orchids that were given to me by other orchid growers. Those orchids, while, maybe not the most beautiful, or biggest, or most colorful, are the most valuable to me, as they serve to remind me of the great friendship these other growers have been to me.
2024 is here! Please keep reading!
While growing Orchids is a passion, we have evolved into more than just orchids. To be honest, I will sell very few orchids - some because I just won't sell certain plants as they are part of my personal collection, and also because I keep relatively few in stock to sell. We have diversified into more plants that we keep in stock to sell. As this year moves from winter to spring, look for other offerings that we will have to sell. I will still have plant sales in my front yard at lease once a month beginning late March/early April, depending on weather. We plan to return to the markets around to sell also. I will be adding a page to this site with a list of available plants. Something new we will have this year is BLUEBERRIES! 
Please keep an eye out for the information on this years offerings. We also will be updating our FaceBook page regularly as to when and where we will be selling plants.
