After going on a butterfly hike in a local park and learning about various plants that attract…read morehumming birds and butterflies, I sought out a nursery that stocked plants like I wanted. After reading great reviews, I decided to pay Richard Lyons Nursery a visit and was glad I did. The property is a little tricky to find and from the street doesn't look that big, but once you enter, you will see the outside looks are deceiving. This place is packed with all sorts of ornamentals, fruit trees and other types of plants. After choosing several plants and having the sales ticket written up, I was very pleasantly surprised to see that it was only $40. Had I gone to another place in Kendall or a major retailer, I would have paid much more. I will definitely be back for more.

This isn't just a great nursery, they also have an amazing variety of mature rare specimen plants…read moreand trees. They have groves also which include jackfruit. We first discovered Lyons in our search for rare Atala butterflies to augment the population at our house... the folks at Montgomery botanical center had recently brought a population of Atala caterpillars to feed on Lyons sizable coontie selection. We were lucky to get a coontie with freshly laid eggs... that was in late September, and they emerged from their cocoons today (late October). They have a wonderful selection of butterfly larval and nectar plants. They have both local and exotic plants also including bamboo, heliconia, and more. When you arrive, park a short way in... a siren will announce your presence, and you'll soon be met by a guide in a golf cart. We've been four times so far, and each time we go we've discovered a new area, and new plants. As you wander around, make sure you look at the amazing mature specimens that dot the property.... such an amazing variety... it rivals a botanical garden!

Today's field trip to Georgie's Paradise was spectacular! I was greeted by gentleman with a green…read moreshirt and answered a few questions as to which type of plants I was looking for, and my journey began. The place is absolutely beautiful! All the plants are healthy, thriving, and luscious. I immediately thought... This is going to be expensive boy was I wrong, I ended up getting a plethora of plants, including a ginger plant, and Monstera, a small kettle chip looking plant possibly a jade, a thriving burgundy vine and much more and spent only about $60. Wow!!!!! I'll definitely be back.

If you are looking for plants you need to come to this section of Krome Avenue in the Redlands…read more There is an amazing amount of plant nurseries concentrated in this area. Some of the nurseries have added food, animals, and attractions, so it is really fun to come out and explore here. Georgie's Paradise is located towards the end of the strip of nurseries. It is really huge and it looks like it goes on for a mile. I couldn't even walk back that far. Trees ornamental and fruit, plants full sun or shade, flowers. orchids, cactus, they have it all. At Georgie's you can get help directly from the owner, Sandra Sauma. The array of plants is really amazing. They also have a cute monkey theme throughout the nursery owing to Bella the capuchin monkey. There is a very nice monkey topiary over a koi pond. When it is time to spruce up your outdoor space come to Georgie's where you will find great service, selection, and prices.

My husband saw this on our way home and wanted to take a look to see what they had. There were SO…read moremany different types of orchids and some smelled good! I didn't even know that orchids had a scent. There was a yellow and white orchid that we were told is very fragrant at night. The lady that helped us was very patient and answered our questions. She told us that she normally has more orchids and some of the orchids we were looking at were from Thailand. We were amazed because it looked like there were already a lot on display. We were looking at a beautiful deep red air orchid with air roots and were considering buying it but were told that it would need daily watering. We said that that might be a problem because we might end up forgetting to water it every day. She told us that we shouldn't get it then (in a helpful way, not in a mean way) because my husband and I were going back and forth trying to figure out if we could keep it alive if we got it. We ended up with a potted orchid that only needed weekly watering. The orchids were a little pricey but they are not your typical orchids that you would find in Home Depot or Lowe's. I don't recall even seeing these types of orchids at our local nurseries.

We will never buy fruit trees from Lara farms again, on two separate occasions they sent us grafted…read moretrees that weren't fully grafted yet, we had a local individual look at the grafted portion of the trees and he said both trees were not fully grafted yet, both trees died shortly after being delivered. We have ordered and purchased a number of grafted trees from other sellers and have never had this issue. We believe they are selling these trees way to early just to make a sale. We will definitely never be wasting our money again with Lara farms in Miami.

Walking into the property is a true Zen experience with a water fountain and pure tranquil feeling. If I did not know better, I would think this is a wedding venue! Further inside, endless orchids are signed and displayed. There are literally thousands! I was looking for full sun tolerant, so my mission was a bit more difficult. An employee welcomed me and immediately assisted She called over another employee who showed me what would fare best. I needed a few very small orchids. I ended up selecting 3 at $10 each. I will say almost all orchids here are pricey. I'm not good with knowing rarity, but some were $75+. They also had a big selection of beautiful indoor ones at $10 & $15 each. If you are into orchids, this is definitely your destination!
