Recommended nurseries in Miami and Orlando?

[Rosim_in_BR]

Hi all
A couple of friends are going to visit Miami and Orlando next week. They love orchids and asked me for directions on nurseries to visit while in these two cities. I’d like to ask if some of you in Florida could be helping me providing one or two nursery names and addresses they could be visiting. Many thanks in advance for any help.

These top 3 are my FAVS, I go to on a regular basis.
The other ones I haven't, but heard they were great too.
Apopka is close to O'town. Byrd's-in Lakeland, about 45 mins outside Orlando.
Clermont, Kissimmee are about 30-40 outside of Orlando.

Thank you very much, Jkelee! It was very kind of you to help me with this!

There's not too many in Miami, they're a little furthur south in Homestead but well worth the drive. You can visit RF Orchids, Amazonian, Banjong, Carr & Carr, or Rubin in Orchids. Good luck!

You're welcome Mauro!!
I wish them Happy Chid shopping
