Directory of Tropicals and Exotics Resources

Home > Home > Gardening > Plants > Tropicals and Exotics

Plants are a major living part of any garden. This is the area for sites who focus on specific types of tropical and exotic plants. If a site focuses on one specific type of plant, it will be listed in the plant name subcategory. If there is no plant name subcategory, then the site will be listed in the plant type category until there are enough sites to create a new subcategory. Sites that sell plants will not be listed here.
