About Us

SCOTT GLAZER – OWNER & ORCHID SALES

Scott’s family started Turtle Pond Nursery & Orchids back in 1985, growing houseplants and orchids. Scott ran the family business from 1998 – 2005, when unfortunately the hurricanes of ’04 & ’05 forced the family to close its doors. With a love for orchids and the industry, Scott decided to continue the Turtle Pond tradition in a new direction. Using his experience, he created a small network of growers who grow and ship on his behalf. His strength is customer service, and is always available for your questions and orchid advice.

Our Business Philosophy

We pride ourselves on the following:

  • Family owned and operated business. Should you call at any time, Scott is available to meet your needs and handle any problems or service requests.
  • Optimal size of our operation: We are big enough to supply you with quantity, yet small enough to maintain superb quality control and consistency among plants.
  • Quality of Plants-All of our plants are of the highest quality and are under the best care. Our experienced growers pay close attention to all of the plants on a daily basis to assure optimal feeding, watering, and light conditions. Our orchids have healthy root systems, large leaf spans, and high bloom count. We do not ship a plant that does not meet our standards.
  • Professional Affiliations: We are longstanding members of the Florida Nurserymen and Growers Association (FNGA), the Palm Beach Wholesale Growers Association, and the Florida Farm Bureau, the American Orchid Society, and the International Phalaenopsis Alliance.
