Thank You for a Beautiful Spring Plant Market!

Spring  Plant  Market  at  Top 
 Tropicals

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for our Spring Plant Market on March 1! It was a perfect early spring day - nice, warm, sunny, and just right for planting. We loved seeing so many familiar faces, welcoming new friends, and sharing the joy of nature together.

Our friendly PeopleCats were hard at work, guiding guests through the garden as they picked out the perfect plants to brighten their spaces. The energy was vibrant, and the smiles were endless!

Check out the event photos made by Damien (he's got some great portraits of people and PeopleCats!). If you see yourself or your friends, save or forward to share the memories! We wish you the best of luck with all your new plants, and we can't wait to see you again at our next event. Happy planting!

Your TopTropicals Team works hard in the field and is always happy to help with your garden needs, plant selection, delivery, and installation: Kristi, Jamie, Onika, Damien, Chiane, Beatriz, Fermin, Mark.

Shady spots aren't a problem - they're an opportunity

 jungle.

Most tropical gardens have at least one corner that gets morning light, filtered sun, or just bright shade - and that's exactly where Anthuriums thrive, along with many other shade-loving plants. That makes them ideal for spaces where other tropicals struggle.

Don't have a greenhouse? You don't need one. Anthuriums do beautifully on a shaded porch, in a screened lanai, or even indoors near a north or east-facing window. They're perfect for:

  • Bathrooms with natural light
  • Bright kitchens with indirect sun
  • Shaded entryways or under eaves
  • Hanging baskets under tree cover
  • Mounting on cork or wood in humid areas

Even a small space can feel like a tropical conservatory with the right plant - and Anthuriums bring that look without being demanding. They grow slowly, stay manageable, and don't need constant pruning or repotting.

Best of all, they reward consistency. Keep them warm, give them some humidity, water when the top inch feels dry, and they'll stay healthy for years. No drama - just quiet, lasting beauty. If you've never grown tropicals in the shade, this is where to start.
