Mango Megastore! Largest Tropical Fruit Nursery in the Country!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 лют 2025
- Have you ever wondered where the tropical fruit nurseries & groves get their wholesale stock? In this feature video, we unveil the largest of these sought-after secret locations right here in South Florida.
Why would we share a nursery that only sells to other businesses? For a really good reason.
Zill High Performance Plants is #1 in the country when it comes to new & top-notch Mango cultivars! Not to mention, they carry just about all the most requested fruit trees for tropical/subtropical Florida! The scale of this location is a visual cue into the countless number of fruit trees that get brokered out for fellow growers & moderate-sized nurseries.
As mentioned in the video, they do not sell to the public & they do not ship. You must have a business/resale license to contact Zill High Performance Plants. (wholesale / bulk orders only)
If you would like to purchase from us & are within the Tampa Bay area, or are willing to make the drive - we offer many items from our private nursery inventory. Many of these plants are reserved for our upcoming clients/projects, but if you would like to shop our availability, you can see the full list here - www.greendream...

I live in Miami, Florida born and raised. Gosh, there were mangoes everywhere. Neighbors did not mind if we climbed their trees and spent a couple of hours climbing and then eating them. There were lots of them on the ground as trees were loaded and many just fell and went to waste. It was paradise. Then, we had an influx of people that did not like any kind of tree and cut so many trees down, even oak. Yards were cemented and now mangoes are sold on the side of the road as well as avocados for more money than I care to spend. We have a home near Coconut Grove and we have two mango trees, one starfruit. We treasure them, and like you we are organic. This was nice to see, I have never heard of them, but am betting that they are close.
This edible nursery is just gorgeous , what a awesome , Wow! Wow ! And Wow ! Place to go ! Thank you Pete for taking us on this Journey ! I hope this nursery business will always be there. How could anyone not love these trees . 🙏 🇺🇸
Glad you enjoyed! Thanks Theresa 🙏
You have done an amazing job with your channel. I love these videos
Thanks Trish 🙏
I get excited when I see a GreenDreams video poppin up, you started me on my dream whirlwind of permaculture...now back from Iowa with my father's house sold, I can relax and work in the yard...did I say relax...I'm poundin'...!!!
Love it! Keep pounding that dirt 👊
These videos make my mouth water. There is nothing like a fresh Florida mango.
That’s the truth Edward!
I was going to say the same comment
Best in the world!
*Edward Erfurt ... I've never tasted a mango from Florida.... I had severe allergic reactions to mangoes all my life...until a few years ago in my late 30's when I tried one and never had any problems... But I've never seen any for sale where I live in Britain❗️*
Someone has never been to Hawaii.
Pete, your knowledge of different varieties and cultivars is AMAZING! I assume years of landscaping and lots of study! Thanks for sharing this inspiration, man!
Hey Neal! Yes sir I’ve been in the landscaping business over 20 years now. Mostly in the field experience for me.
@@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL Pete can you drop a few varieties of really good mango trees to get?
Hey Pete, another excellent video. So glad Justin challenged you to start. Keep up the great work.
Thank you Dave!👊
@@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL , your most welcome buddy. When's the next farm tour, if you're still doing them?
Oh man, you're no the only one. Edibles nurseries are like heaven... and when you find a variety of a fruit you've never heard of or that you were looking for for ages, it feels like Christmas x 10 : D
Seriously! I got three new plants last night. I was so excited all night!
Can’t wait to start my own fruit paradise in the Canary Islands. Working on it, step by step. Thanks, Pete, for sharing the passion, the excitement and the time and energy. You are looking great by the way!
Very cool! Sounds like an epic spot for a food forest. Thank you 😊
Woah really big nursery. Great.
N subscribed haha
Thanks 😊
I'm from SEA and mango is probably my most favourite among tropical fruits. A delicious cold dessert which can be made from ripe mangoes is ''mango with tapioca pearls''. But I love eating it unripe (as in sour-green) with some savoury shrimp paste. I hope these young trees will grow healthily and yield lots of fruits for the gustatory happiness of many. Thank you for sharing.
That desert sounds amazing! I just started enjoying green mangos last year, they grow a special variety for that in Florida. There also great pickled.
I was there walking around 2 weeks ago, very cool place to see so many varieties
Where's this place? What's the name?
Great video.love the farm tours,being able to see someone else's context is very helpful in redefining your own.
Thanks Andrew!
Wonderful facility. Hopefully they keep going for a very long time
Fingers crossed!
Beautiful tour man. Thanks for sharing. I can’t wait to go to south Florida for mango season
Thank you! Enjoy 🙌
R V you are lucky. Enjoy 🙂
I’ve heard a lot about Zills but I’ve never seen it. Awesome video! Thanks!
Thanks Diane!
Gary is a legend, I didn’t get to tour the whole Costa Rica nursery of zills, so I hope to get to through your future videos! Really epic footage collection in the intro to this video!
Thanks brother! Heading back late June, I’m hoping to hit Gary’s place in CR then.
I love mangos!💕 You the first person besides my doctor that have mentioned about allergic reaction to them and being related to Poison Ivy. Everybody else think s that is wéird. I am from Miami and I use to take naps up in the mango trees. I dont eat them any more. They are still tempting. Thank for sharing. There is still hope.
In Hawaii they call it "mango rash". Of course I didn't find that out until I had it, after having a bounty of Hayden mangoes which I ate, froze and made into pies. Fingers and around the mouth. BUT it cured my poison oak allergy, which I realized after exposure in the California Sierras.
i like your nursery very beautiful and huge if we want to buy mango plants how many minimum order you take for south carolina
very nice nursey. thanks for the video.
Great video on Zill's....Grow on..and pound dirt my friend!!
Thanks bro! 👊
@@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL prices for this trees please
I love ALL your videos. Excellent
Thank you! 😊
That's outstanding. Unfortunately we don't get mangoes growing. Babaco's about as tropical as we get.
I walked through an amazing property yesterday Pete. A redwood forest go along and turn the corner a Eucalypt forest turn the corner a maple forest... Massive fig plantation all cut to about 1.5 metres for ease of harvest. So much learned. If you ever come to NZ give me a shout out I'll point you to a few choice properties via the permies here.
Nice video
Great video! ZHPP is one of my favorite destinations.
Thanks John! Good seeing you bro👊
Just saw the Green Dreams website. Will have to make an order. Looks like you guys carry an excellent variety!
Thanks man! We try our best to keep up.
@@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL You have me sold on the Black Surinam.
Great video Pete. I've always wanted to go. So impressive from the drone!
Thanks Paul! We should hit the CR nursery too if we have time.
@@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL lets do it!
Excellent Video!
I found it to be very informative.
Great Job!
Thanks David!
You find the coolest nurseries!!! Wish we could go there to get some plants! Amy just started eating mangos and wants to get some for our property!
I love plant shopping! I have some mangos when you’re ready.
I watsch Ur Video very nice and Info matic 👍👊👊👊
Thank you 🙏
WOW !!!

Also, awesome drone footage bra, I could almost feel the wind in my hair. 👍👍👍
Thanks Gerald!
Dream come true to have two trees of each kind
Your drone skills are crazy! I felt like I was coming in for landing on that opening. Really cool to see these spots from the aerial view first. And don't even talk about the nursery, this is crack for me. Great vids. Keep them coming.
Thanks for noticing! I could go broke hanging out at these nurseries 😝
@@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL I can totally understand.
definitely a awesome video bro! Making me miss home!
Thanks man!
Hey Pete, awesome video! I have a small home nursery and currently purchase from Zills a few times a year. Its pretty cool to see more of their property! You mention in the video that you buy from a few other nursery and might do a series of the ones you buy from. I was wondering if you would be willing to share with me the names of the other nurseries that you buy from that wholesale to nursery owners like me? I would love to add some more diversity for my customers if possible.
Huge respect. ....thank you for sharing. .... I want to know & see more about your trailer (dimensions, carrying capacity )
Great informational tour, all part of your edible adventures.
Edible adventures :)
Man that farm is definitely worth visiting, I will tell my friend and sister to go there and buy different kinds of mangoes! I have a few varieties of mango already I have 3year variety. Thanks for the upload mad respect bro
Thanks man! Remember wholesale only here. They don’t sell retail.
@@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL thanks I will keep that in mind.
Awesome 👏
Thanks!
Love Zill, Plant paradise brother.
Right on! 👊
We had a Haden Mango in Fort Lauderdale.... Oh so good with vanilla ice cream....!!!!
Oh wooooow! So many mangoes my goodneeeessss! 😍😍😍😍😍
Seriously next level! We have the best mangoes in the world in Florida! Right now is peak season. I just shot a video at Zills other farm in Costa Rica last week.
Your nursery biggest than me
Nice nursery
Hi Pete, We spoke a few months ago, I design farms, gardens, pools, Intentional Communities, lakes/ponds, etc. My great grand parents had the old (I believe original) Mango Grove in Pine Island. As I understood, my great grandfather had bred a couple varieties, one named after my great grandmother. The one Grove there I believe sells one "Jay Byrd" (their last name was Byrd) so, wonder if you know of that one? As always, your videos are great and much appreciated.
Hello! Yes, I am familiar with that mango on pine island. Small world!
@@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL back in the day, there was a Russian diplomat that brought the first broccoli seeds over to the US and my great-grandfather grew them. My grandmother used to tell stories about how they experimented with different ways on how to cook it once they grew it!
Someday when we meet, maybe my next trip to Florida to visit family, I'll share with you a bunch of other stories like that in the world of Florida farming, laying out some of the streets, My great-grandfather's supervising the crew that put the first railroad tracks across the Everglades, etc. Etc.
Some of our retailers here in AZ are bringing in those unique varieties like Val Carrie, etc...I think Zill is one main source. Outstanding video again, Pete !!
Hey Jeff! Yeah I didn’t want to blow up his spot too bad, but Shamus has two semi’s ready to leave.
I rarely buy from him...there are several others that I am more confident in here. Our nurseries make many regular trips out there :)
Mangovore! Zills is awesome
I have that shirt!!
Thank you for showing this. It is fun to see it. Good job with the Organic Farm!!! That is awesome!!! Will the Kerry mango grow in 9B FL? I am glad you mentioned the difference in fresh mangos because I really never liked store mangos.
Yes it will
Fruit tree heaven! 🌴 Better than the mall!
Oh I hate the mall! Lol I can’t do it anymore
Soooo Cooool!
A fantastic and tempting place😍
Thanks!
You're turning me into a permaculture junkie! LOL. I recommended you this morning to a lady with a blueberry farm. I bought 6 Chickadee High Bush blueberries from her.
That’s a good problem! Enjoy 👊
I bet they don't have sweet giant catimon developed by Rogelio Espejo Jr. this mango variety bears fruit in trunks and branches and weighs about 4 lbs. each
Wow!
I too feel like a kid in the candy store when I go to fruit tree nurseries. LOL
So much fun!
Love it
thank you for another great vid, I wish I could grow some of these here where I am at in wa state with out a green house. Do you have any suggestions for books, on how to make food forest or have you written one?
Matt McGhee thank you! I would suggest checking out Eric Toiensmeir’s work, he’s in Massachusetts doing some amazing work with a small yard. He also has a few books available
awesome, thank you
nice video.
Thanks!
I love Glen Mango too !!
My friend harvest is first Glenn of the season today.
Nice
Awesome 😍
Pete have you been to A Natural Farm in Howey in the Hills? They seem to be doing everything naturally and organically. I have several friends who only buy plants through them!
Hey pete, question! We're looking to move out to Okeechobee florida hopefully next year. Will mango trees grow good out there and be good producers? I believe the zone that we'll be in is 9b
Not reliably. You need to be closer to the coast.
@@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL is it possible to trick them by growing in green houses? I don't have many i wanna grow just maybe 2 or 3
So Pete do you ship outside the US for example to Barbados in the Caribbean as yet? Or could you recommend a company that does even in this Covid 19 time?
Awesome
Thanks!
Mango heaven
😍😍😍😍 in love
Mango heaven 🥭
Hi Pete I really enjoy your videos. So I want to start a mango fruit farm in Bushnell Florida. I’m planning on going with Tommy Atkins what would you recommend? Do you think it would work well here? Thanks man appreciate it!
Hey man! I think you’re too far north for mangoes, you need to be further south or closer to the coast. As for variety I would never suggest Tommy Adkins, they barely for human consumption. Drop us an email when you get closer. Thanks
Admin@greendreamsfl.com
@@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL how about in Bonita springs FL what mango variety would you recommend growing in that area?
Do you still have to use some chemical fertilizers when weening trees over to organic or do you mean it takes time to transition to get them flushed? I'm experiencing yellowing and leaves dropping on a new tree and maybe that's why. Will they experience a shock of sorts if not weened off?
love that stacking tech
Thanks Nathaniel! 👊
Thanks for the great video Pete; can you please give me some tropical fruit tree nursery suggestions that carry a good variety of mango trees for purchase and can ship to San Francisco Bay area? Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed! I’m sorry I don’t anyone shipping mangoes to California
Yes sure big. I love mango.
What’s the best way to taste the variety of mangoes available in S FL for an outsider coming down to try them out?
Hello! I’d say the mango tasting at fruit and spice park in homestead. You’ll have to check the schedule.
Pete Kanaris GreenDreamsFL Thanks!! Keep growing! Love your content
I’m so jealous!! Get a bunch of each variety and sell them to us😂
I keep the good ones in stock 😉
Pete Kanaris GreenDreamsFL I was actually looking at your site the other day and wondering if you sell and ship plants to other states? I’m just north of Houston and am going to be starting a small food forest in the next couple of months and there are some rare plants that I’m looking for! Or more rare varieties of mangos and some others.
Pete, are they developing a mango that can survive in zone 8 without having to be grown in a pot?
Maybe not here at Zills but maybe Fairchild. I’ve heard Norris Ledesma talk about breeding for a north Florida/Georgia mango. That sure would be awesome!
Digging it! Pounding Dirt In Pounds!
👊
So mangos are in the poison ivy family. Wow, that's a interesting relative to have. I have never reacted to a mango, hopefully never will. A couple of years ago, three mangos grew up in my compost heap. I tried to grow them inside, but didn't work out . There wasn't enough light. What a huge mango, exotic fruit farm!!!! Keep growing.🌴🌴🌴🌴🌺🌺🌺🌴🌴🌴🌴🌺🌺🌺🌴🌴🌴🌴🌺🌺🌺🌴🌴🌴🌴🌺🌺🌺🌴🌴🌴🌵🌺🌺🌺🌴🌴🌴🌴🌺🌺🌺🌴🌴🌴🌴🌺🌺🌺🌴🌴🌴🌴🌺🌺🌺🌴🌴🌴🌴
Yup! It’s fresh mangoes and the sap you really have to watch. Thanks 🙏
Thank you for Highlighting my comment. I am glad the fresh mangos are the the ones you have to look out for. Up here in Michigan, we don't get the fresh mangos.🌺🌺🌺🌴🌴🌴🌺🌺🌺🌴🌴🌴🌺🌺🌺🌴🌴🌴🌺🌺🌺🌴🌴🌴🌺🌺🌺🌴🌴🌴🌺🌺🌺🌴🌴🌴🌺🌺🌺🌴🌴🌴🌺🌺🌺🌴🌴🌴🌺🌺🌺🌴🌴🌴🌺🌺🌺🌴🌴🌴🌺🌺🌺🌴🌴🌴🌺
I just am really interested in what plants grow where, and mangos are one of my favorites. Looking online for tropical fruit is one of my favorite hobbies. Yet up here you don't get the same freshness or variety. Thank you for Highlighting my comment. Keep a growing!!!🌺🌺🌺🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌺🌺🌺🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌺🌺🌺🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌺🌺🌺🌿🌿🌺🌺🌺🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌺🌺🌺🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌺🌺🌺🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌺🌺🌺🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌺🌺🌺🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌺🌺🌺🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌺🌺🌺🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌺🌺🌺🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌺🌺🌺🌿🌿🌿🌿🌿🌺🌺🌺
Looking for fruit tree wholesalers, looking to travel to Miami FL next week. Any suggestions?
Pete, do you know where I can purchase a 25 gallon potted Duncan grapefruit? Hard to find. Also, when will those tangerines you planted, grafted, still be ready to purchase. I want to plant in Pensacola. Thanks
That's a lot of trees, just what you bought is quite a few.
I have 20,000 plants in my nursery 😬
#FloridaFruitTrees 🥰💗🥰
Can mango tress be grown in Jacksonville, FL?
Hey Pete... what root stock do they use on mangoes? Turpentine is not so good in SoCal? I am told Manila is better??? Comments??? Cheers... drone footage is gr8, m8!
Hey John! Here in Florida the preferred rootstock is turpentine. I love that drone 🚁
It's my dream to have you & your team assistance with installing my fruit forest here in Jamaica.
We build dreams:)
@@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL looking forward to it.
Thanks in advance
I have a mango tree in my yard that’s mature and puts out quite a bunch they are fiber free very delicious sweet and a yellowish orangey flesh how do I find out what kind they are?
Pictures of the fruit and tree is usually best for identification. I’d share them on a Facebook mango page.
Stacking plants like a pro! What kind of papayas do they sell there?
Thanks Jason! 👊
Normally red lady and TR hovey.
I'm in East Texas, what is the most hardy mango i can get to plant in a container? Thank you
Can your tell me where is this farm ... ? I looking to buy some mango trees for my house
They’re large scale commercial only
are visitors allowed to tour the nursery?
Nope. They’re closed to the public
Where is that what part off iFlorida
Pete hello, how much are the seedlings? Really curious ))
They are about 1/2 the usual retail cost, like most items in life. This is a wholesale only nursery they only sell to resellers with business license, in large orders.
I live in Kissimmee, Fl. Where can I buy the trees?
Thanks in advance.
Greendreamsfl.com
Great
Chinese,Hayden,and common. Three varieties that are always grown in Hawaii
Now I know where I'll be going shoplifting since they dont want my money by mot selling to the public. Is it stealing if I leave the money behind? Lol
I took a look at your inventory list. Just wondering if you shop to California.
Too funny! Yes, I just got my stamps for California. The online store will be open the 1st of the year.
Any mangoes 🥭 can survive zone 9A yet. Ocala Florida?
Not reliably
So do u sell to people r just companies
Whats a good public nursery in the central florida or west central Florida area?
We aren’t too far from central Florida. The big ones are in homestead and pine island on the west coast.
GreendreamsFl.com
is it public garden ? How can I visit there
Nope! It’s a wholesale nursery and now with Covid no contact pickup only.
@@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL I like to see it specially mango varieties
I learned the hard way about the poison ivy family with my first tree.
Me too originally!
If I own a large size land, I would love to plant acres and acres of different types of tropical fruits.
Growing fruits is quite gratifying
