Inside Carlsbad's International Floral Trade Center on Dryden Place, Exotic Foliage runs a wholesale nursery specializing in orchids, tillandsia, succulents, and tropical indoor foliage. The nursery supplies landscape contractors including Bamby's Flowers with specimen-grade phalaenopsis, bromeliads, and air plants sourced from domestic growers and international importers. Inventory rotates through temperature-controlled greenhouse bays calibrated for the humidity and light requirements of each genus, from high-humidity orchid stock to drought-tolerant echeveria trays. That propagation infrastructure also feeds the container-gardening market, where the nursery's succulents and tropicals complement planter hardware from Hooks & Lattice for residential and commercial interior installations. Phalaenopsis orchids ship in 4-inch and 6-inch pots with sphagnum moss media, acclimated to interior light levels between 1,000 and 2,000 foot-candles for optimal bloom duration.
