About Us

Plantío La Orquídea is a family owned business, it was founded by Henrique Graf in Venezuela in 1952 and is the largest orchid nursery and laboratory in that country. In 2003 Christine and Rafael moved to Florida to start the business here and take better care of our customers in the United States.

The Sarasota Location has a growing area of approximately 10,000 sq.ft., since 2015 we started our small lab so we can keep reproducing original hybrids and great warm growing species.
