Steve began his horticultural journey with an interest in terrariums at the age of 13. By the time he was 18 (1976) he had started a backyard nursery. Filling the back seat and trunk of his car with his home grown tropical plants, he drove to each local florist and nursery until his daily supply was sold. In 1991, after filling up his two backyard greenhouses and two leased commercial greenhouses, Steve consolidated his operation onto four acres in Lewisville, Texas.
For the past 41 years, his plants have been available in home centers, supermarkets, independent garden centers, nurseries, and other retail locations across the Dallas/Fort Worth, Texas area. Now, his tropical plants are available online to consumers across the United States. Browse hundreds of varieties on his site and find a new plant or rediscover an old favorite.
