The Tropical Plant Industry Exhibition (TPIE) is a trade event that showcases the latest trends in foliage, floral and tropicals in sunny Florida, and one of the standouts spotlighted this year was the Root Orb Plant System from Kreative Gardens. This patent pending product is designed to take the place of a traditional plant pot by weaving the plant's roots in organic material.

Your Ticket to Paradise

We are all just loving the new Tropic Escape Hibiscus collection from Costa Farms! I first saw these beautiful and bold plants in January down at the TPIE show in Ft. Lauderdale. The size and colors of the blooms just blew me away!

This new collection comes in 12 varieties with blooms in tropical colors of yellows, reds and oranges. Plus, the names sound like delicious cocktails - Sunrise Mimosa, Tiki Temptation, South Pacific Sipper to name a few. They are all easy to grow and bloom twice as long as traditional hibiscus. I can't wait to plant up a few to punch up my patio this summer!
