Zephyrus Orchids

Father and son at the New York orchid show at Rockefeller Center after winning Best in Show! 'There once were four Greek Gods, each charge to his own wind; Boreas was the rude god of the chilling northern winter winds, whereas Notus was the god of the hot, steamy winds of the summer. Eurus was the god of the Eastern wind, coming in the fall and cas... ting the leaves from trees. It was Zephyrus, however, the lover of Flora and god of the warming winds that came every spring, who made all the plants grow.' We began Zephyrus Orchids in the late 90s from a passion for growing and creating rare and exceptional orchids. That path led us to build, at our biggest, a 5,000 square foot retail greenhouse near Windsor, Ontario, Canada. This was eventually followed by a much smaller core collection in a 200 square foot basement setup at our smallest. Today we have a relatively small greenhouse collection of our all time favourites, focused on growing them to their absolute best while creating improved species and novel, beautiful hybrids.Read More
