☔️ Your hose or rain water brings your plants a drink, but not a plant food! Adding composted manure to your irrigation is just not the right solution... Instead, you should make a solution of scientifically formulated liquid plant food - Sunshine Boosters.
💧All Sunshine Boosters are compatible and can be mixed all in one watering-can right before use.
💧They can be used with every watering, year around including winter time
💧Different formulas designed for different plant types: fruiting, flowering, foliage plants, etc., plus additional supplements of microelements and biostimulants.
💧Sunshine Boosters have a full spectrum of essential elements. Amino-acids provide total consumption, so nutrients do not build up in soil even with daily applications.

💠 Brunfelsias are truly enchanting tropical flowers. There are two groups - purple-flowered and cream/white-flowered.
💠 All Brunfelsias are wonderfully fragrant.
💠 Perfect flowering shrub for shaded areas; ideal for growing in containers.
💠 Compact and graceful growers.
💠 Purple-flowered are known as Yesterday-Today-Tomorrow for their magical color transformation from purple to lavender to white over three days. Examples: B. grandiflora, B. paucifolia, B. australis.
💠 White-flowered: intensely fragrant at night, earning the name Lady of the Night.
💠 Hybrids: A standout hybrid is Brunfelsia isola, that we mentioned earlier. It is blending the best of both purple and white varieties, inheriting purple color from the purple parent and night fragrance from the white one.
Examples: B. americana, B. nitida, B. plicata, B. manaca.

Yellow Poinciana, Jacaranda, and Royal Poinciana paintings

Yellow Poinciana

Jacaranda

Royal Poinciana
While traveling through the vibrant and diverse Caribbean, we acquired three exquisite local paintings rendered on jacaranda wood plates and a calabash. These pieces of art celebrate the three most spectacular and revered flowering trees of the Tropics:
- Yellow Poinciana, with its bright golden blossoms, associated with joy and sunlight, symbolizing the warmth of the Caribbean spirit💛
- Jacaranda, known for its striking lavender-blue flowers, is a symbol of wisdom and rebirth, blooming in a breathtaking display that signals the change of seasons 💜
- Royal Poinciana, that we mentioned earlier, with its fiery red and orange flowers, is a symbol of passion and energy, referred to as the "Flamboyant" tree due to its bold and dramatic appearance ♥️
Get them now while we have them. No need to go too far into Caribbean!

Petrea volubilis, Queen's Wreath, Sandpaper vine
- 🟣 Petrea volubilis, also known as Queen's Wreath or Sandpaper vine, is a twining vine with large, rough leaves - just like a sandpaper!
- 🟣 But look at the flowers - spectacular Royal show! Does it remind you of a Northern Wisteria? It is actually another common name of Petrea - Tropical Wisteria.
- 🟣 The tall clusters of purple flowers, reaching over 1 foot long 👀 are truly spectacular.
- 🟣 Thriving in warm and humid conditions, its blooms last a couple of days, but the blue calices persist much longer, and more new flowers are coming every day.
- 🟣 Attracts butterflies, bees, and hummingbirds 🐝
- 🟣 This woody vine grows fast and can cover a large fence within just a couple of seasons. It's a show stopper! 👏
