About Us
Bullis Bromeliads is a family-owned business that has flourished on over 25 acres of land, with 18 acres dedicated to shade houses and 2.5 acres of greenhouses. Founded in 1977 by the late Harvey R. Bullis Jr, a marine biologist and macologist. Harvey’s love for bromeliads began when he discovered these unique plants during his travels through South America. Fascinated by their beauty and versatility, he began importing them to the U.S., introducing many species to the market for the first time. Today, Bullis Bromeliads continues to thrive under the leadership of Harvey R. Bullis III and Patricia Bullis. They are joined by their sons, Harvey IV and Thomas Bullis, as well as their nephews, Rick and Thomas G., ensuring that the family traditions of innovation, quality bromeliads, and customer service continue to be passed down through generations.
We are proud to grow over 350 species, cultivars, and hybrids from 20 different bromeliad genus throughout the year. At any one time we will have over 300 bromeliad varieties available from bareroot air plants to potted 4”-24”. We grow bromeliads that can be acclimated to a variety of conditions, from full sun, shade, interior applications, and even salt tolerant. Our plants are sought after for their exceptional quality. They are used in landscapes, interiorscapes, garden centers, and botanical gardens across the U.S.
We are constantly innovating and anticipate to introduce several more unique quality bromeliads into the future contributing fresh new looks and styles suiting the needs of all our clients. The most popular bromeliads we are known for are Aechmea’s Blue Tango (P.), Del Mar (P.), and dozens of Neoregelia’s such as Autumn Rain (P.), Donger (P.), and Green Apples (P.)
It is our mission, vision, and goal to share the beauty bromeliads have to offer!
