California Orchids has been growing orchids professionally for over 35 years. The temperate nature of our coastal location in West Marin County, California allows us to grow a wide range of orchid genera, both indoors and out.
For most of those years we boarded private orchid collections and held big open houses twice a year. Now Mary is retiring so we will no longer be holding the big sales and we have only a few local boarded collections. Many, many thanks to those of you who have supported us over the years!
However I am still growing orchids (it is way too much fun to stop) and I am open by appointment! If there is something specific you are looking for, just text/call me at (415) 713- 0203, or email me at info@californiaorchids.com and I will do my best to help.
I am also happy to answer questions or give advice about greenhouses and growing orchids. If you are having a difficult time with your plants send me a photo that shows the plant as clear and complete as possible, because as we all know a picture is worth a thousand words! I also offer small tours of the nursery.
Meanwhile, join the Orchid Conservation Alliance, travel to see orchids, and join an orchid society! These are places filled with wonderful orchid lovers. Go to the Resource page for help with this..
