"No occupation is so
delightful to me as the
culture of the earth, and
no culture comparable to that
of the garden...But though an
old man, I am but a young
gardener."

What Makes my nursery different?
Midwest Aquatics and Exotics is different than most nurseries because of the plant selections I choose to grow. So many nurseries are "cookie cutter" copies of one another with each offering the same stock over and over again. I take pride in growing plants that are less common and harder to find. I am committed to my customers to provide them with plants that are true to name, healthy, and free of pests. All Midwest Aquatics and Exotics plants are grown by the mildest means possible. What this means to you is that I do not use harsh pesticides in my pest management program. I believe in using  natural methods to control pests. I grow all of my own stock which allows me to control the quality of my plants. 


 
Plumeria 'Marinos Rainbow"


The selection of tropical flowering plants, trees

and vines you will discover in my online store includes many popular tropical cultivars, and also rare, hard to find varieties which should be of particular interest to tropical collectors. As always my emphasis is on developing a full, well branched root system, healthy dense celled foilage, and intense full colored flowers with rich fragrance. please visit the online store and browse the selection and availability.
