Suzy's Slippers LLC is a registered Florida Nursery with the Florida Department of Agriculture, and is certified nematode free to ship to California as well as the other continental United States. I also hold USDA import and CITES licenses. I have been growing orchids in South Florida for over 40 years. In 2007 I read an article published by the American Orchid Society on a new Phragmipedium discovered in Peru, the kovachii. It was love at first sight and I have been hooked on “slipper orchids” ever since. A few years ago, I decided I wanted to focus on growing “slipper babies” and Suzy’s Slippers was born. Check out my new website at suzysslippers.com. Please note that all buyers may contact me with regards to their purchases, I do not accept returns as many of my plants are young and shipping can be traumatic. However, I will work with any buyer to assure their satisfaction. Thank you Suzy
