Growing orchids south Florida style

South Florida is home to so many amazing people as well as so many gorgeous plant species that call this place home. One type of plant that grows well in our subtropical climate are orchids, oh the lovely orchid! And one amazing person who does this extremely well is Ms. Gayle at Mickey's Orchids in the heart of Fort Lauderdale. Normally one would have to drive almost an hour to some of the agricultural areas like Homestead, Davie, Loxahatchee or Delray Beach, but we are so lucky to have this gem right here. Gayle is one heck of a master grower and her passion really shows in the quality and diversity of her orchids. She and her son are by far some of the nicest people I know! Not many people will take the time to answer questions and talk about their craft like they do. Sooooo without further adieu, let me show you Mickey's Orchids so you can get your shopping list together and head over there.
