Thanh is the owner-operator of Springwater Orchids, located in Melbourne, FL. He is an engineer by trade, but also has been collecting and growing orchids for 50 years. His orchid business began in 2001, mainly selling on the internet but gradually moved to orchid shows in recent years.
Thanh loves orchid species. And although he grows and sells all orchids genera, his forte has always been the genus of Paphiopedilum. He collects fine plants; grows, sells, breeds, and enjoys sharing his experiences with his customers and colleagues. His passion in paphs resulted in numerous award -winning plants and an on-going paphs breeding program using local lab work, and local growing environment. His breeding program recently extended to mini/compact plants, and interesting primary crosses. He also continues to breed species, improving overall plants and flower quality, and broadening their growing conditions to make growing these orchids a joy, not an aggravation!
Give it a try, buy a seedling!
Thanh will have orchids for sale.
