Por La Mar Nursery is proudly rooted in Santa Barbara, California. Our mission is simple: to cultivate health and happiness through American-grown plants.

Our story began in 1972, when Ron and Pat Caird started growing plants for sale at the Los Angeles Flower Mart. More than 50 years and three generations later, we continue their legacy with a deep commitment to sustainability—setting meaningful standards to reduce our environmental footprint while growing plants that bring joy, wellness, and beauty into everyday life.

Today, we grow and ship nationally, offering hundreds of tropical plant varieties, including rare and exotic selections, as well as seasonal blooming favorites. As cultivators, breeders, and growers, we believe plants don’t just enhance spaces—they enrich lives. They create fresh oxygen, reduce stress, boost productivity, and lift moods.

At Por La Mar, we’re proud to play a role in your wellness, one plant at a time.
