How We Work
The Florafolia Way
Understand
Send us your plant schedule, brief or enquiry. We learn the species, sizing, quantities, quality standards and site conditions.
Quote
We review against our production stock and identify what needs sourcing. One complete quote covering every line. No gaps.
Plan
We lock in growing schedules, confirm sourcing partners for the balance, and set delivery dates matched to your program.
Fulfil
We grow, source, aggregate, quality-check and grade. One coordinated delivery, presentation ready. On spec, on time, on site.
Follow up
We check in after delivery. Any issues are resolved and the next order is planned. Relationship, not transaction.

Unique to Florafolia
Exclusive PBR lines

- Melia azedarach 'Elite' — NNSW + QLD
- Syzygium 'Backyard Bliss' — NNSW + QLD
- Plus exclusive hedging and screening releases
The Hoya 100mm Collection
One of Australia's largest Hoya ranges
Over 500 varieties across three price tiers, from reliable favourites to hard-to-find and rare collector lines. Grown at volume in 100mm pots, shipped retail-ready, with regular drops of new and exciting varieties. Mixed trays available.
