Botanics Wholesale  

Over the past thirty years, we have shipped to five of the seven continents as well as many destinations within the continental United States and Canada. Successfully shipping living plant material requires adherence to their basic fundamental needs, which when appreciated and provided for, greatly increase the likelihood of their arrival in good condition. Given our years of experience, we know what is required and consequently what is necessary to succeed in shipping your tropical plant order.

It is not just the knowledge of what needs to be done, but making sure that the necessary steps are taken to achieve successful results. At Botanics Wholesale, our reputation is reflected in every single order that leaves our nursery, be it a single tree for a home on Miami Beach or multiple containers for a hotel development in the Caribbean.  We want to be certain that you, our customer, is not just satisfied, but ecstatic that you chose us for your palm and tree order.  We have the skill along with the resolve to make the most of your shipping budget.  We understand that we can only be successful if you are.  With Botanics Wholesale, you can be assured that you will receive the best quality plant material, loaded with care, while maximizing your container to realize a full pack-out.

With over 100 acres, we are small enough to care but large enough to provide you with many hard to find specimens that only we grow and that will assuredly help create that unique statement.  Whatever items we may not grow, we are able to source locally from the many other fine nurseries and horticultural suppliers in the south Florida area, with which we have long standing relationships.

Our collection of specimen sized Yucca rostrata (Beaked Yucca) have been containerized for our customers convenience.  Ranging in age from 15-30 years old, these plants are slow growers capable of reaching heights of 15'.  They are extremely drought tolerant and able to withstand temperatures below 0^◦F.

Until recently, moving large Copernicia Palms (baileyana, fallaensis, gigas, macroglossa, rigida, etc) has come with a high risk factor.  Through the use of a simple yet effective innovation in technique, we have all but eliminated transplant shock risks associated with moving these highly sought after specimens.  Root balls are solid and easy to handle for our customers.  Furthermore, as these plant are container grown, they are immediately available and do not require waiting several months for root prunes.  The same growing technique has also been applied to to Corypha spp and Borassus spp with perfect results.

In an effort to reduce transplant shock, we grow hundreds and hundreds of large, 100 gallon containerized Coconut Palms.  Pick from Jamaican Certified Green Malayan or Fiji Dwarf Coconuts.  Ready for immediate shipment to sites where a container grown plant is desired or perhaps required to meet phytosanitary requirements.

We grow a large variety of both Florida and Caribbean natives that not only look great in the landscape, but are also best suited for our climate. 

In order to export cycads (as well as many other plants), the exporter is required to have a CITES permit.  This stands for Certificate for International Trade of Endangered Species.  In order to acquire these permits, we have proven that we source our propagation material from legitimate and sustainable sources and grow the plants in all stages of production. 

Large Specimen Sized Cycads Available!

Considered by many to be the most beautiful palm in the world, the Red Sealing Wax Palm is native to lowland rain forests and coastal swamps of Malaysia and Borneo.  It grows best with adequate and regular irrigation.  It is naturally clumping and requires protection from cool temperatures and drying winds.

Native to the Ryuku Islands of Japan, Satakentia liukiuensis is highly salt tolerant and grows at a moderate rate up to 35'.  It has shown incredible durability in hurricane situations as well as versatility in a wide range of soils.  Adequate irrigation and regular fertilization will help this specimen palm grow it's best.  While attractive as a single plant,  group plantings are bold and especially striking.  Our Satakentia are double root pruned and treated to reduce transplant shock.  We have hundreds to pick from at any given moment.

Though each location has it's own unique availability and pricing, you can be assured of receiving the high level of service at either.
