Peltons Bamboo

Great place, Mr. Don is extremely kind and open and helped us a great deal with our decision.

This is an update. They retired the hours sign from the entrance but there are a couple of sign where say "yes we are open". I came sunday at noon and called to the phone number and the guy told me "Yes we are closed". Your honey is very good but remove the sign from the entrance. He sold me a couple of honey bottles despite was closed (sunday). The honey is pretty good and he was kind too

A great Nursery with people who love the business. My wife and I ran into the owner of Pelton's Nursery, Don, while visiting Miami researching bamboo in preparation to opening a bamboo Nursery in the Sarasota area. We traveled down to Miami to visit a list of Nursery's we had made to review/research. Our interest is specializing in larger "Timber Bamboos". On our visit to Pelton's Nursery, Don took a serious interest in our new business venture and we spent a couple hours with Don talking about his experience in growing bamboo and running his business. Don showed us around his nursery and you knew that growing and running a nursery was a personal passion of Don's. At the end of our visit to Miami, we met with Don and purchased 250 "Bambusa Oldhamii" plants for our Nursery stock. I hav

Having visited many other bamboo and heliconia nurseries in south florida, this is the place you need to purchase from. The bamboo is thick and lush. Don was very helpful in disclosing what fertilizer and watering requirements were needed to have the heliconia and bamboo continue to thrive. I purchased 25 7 foot texcillis gracilis bamboo to create a privacy wall along my fence line. I purchased 20 heliconia for a lush wall along the other fence line. After 4 months, my bamboo is now a solid green wall and my heliconia is full. Both are about 15 feet tall now! They also did the installation and put in the drip line for watering every 6 hours. Amazing service!

My wife and I were thinking about getting some bamboo and visited this nursery recently. We met the Owner Don, who walked us through the nursery and spent a great deal of time with us answering all the questions I had about bamboo. while I'm a novice, I do enjoy landscaping and learning about plants and landscape design. We had a great time as Don educated us not only about bamboo, but also about many other plants that he has at his nursery, as well as providing us with helpful planting techniques. He even gave us some of the honey that he harvests at the nursery. I highly recommend this place, as the owner Don is clearly passionate about bamboo and landscaping which is reflected in the quality of of the plants and the service that his nursery provides.
