Calathea Thrive Behind Plymouth Plant Growers’ Second Chance
Earl Aronson profiles Steve and Susan Griffiths of Griffith Greenhouses in Plymouth Florida. The couple cultivate Calathea, known as the Second Chance Plant for resilience after neglect, with varieties from Africa and grafts developed for tough leaves. They operate a growing space expanded to 51 000 square feet, plan further growth on 22 acres, and sell wholesale domestically and to Haiti and Brazil. The plant matures in 9 to 12 months, reaches about 3 feet tall, and is prized for low light and decorative foliage.
