About the Nursery
Rare Tropical Plant Nursery. Top products: Rare tropical house plants, Specialty indoor foliage, Seed-grown exotic specimens. Florahound is a boutique horticultural nursery located in Sherman Oaks, CA, dedicated to the curation and cultivation of rare tropical plants. Founded by master horticulturist Leon Massoth, the nursery distinguishes itself from mass-market commercial growers by focusing on small-batch, slow-grown specimens. Their inventory is centered on unique botanical lineages, many of which are propagated from seed or ethically sourced genetics that are not available through typical retail channels. The business model prioritizes quality over quantity, with an emphasis on plant resilience and long-term health. Florahound serves a diverse clientele ranging from serious plant collectors to curious beginners, offering expert guidance on species-specific care, light requirements, and safety considerations. The nursery operates primarily as an in-person retail experience, ensuring that customers can inspect the health and quality of the plants before purchase. Their collection is characterized by high turnover and limited availability, reflecting their commitment to offering distinct, non-mass-produced plants.

Unique emporium with passionate owners. Bought a Philodendron Golden Crocodile and it is now the star of our office. Highly recommend a visit to this gem of a shop.

The owner and his staff are delightful, the plants are unique and beautiful, and the only thing missing is a visit from you. I have never seen plants like this outside of botanical gardens. There are orchids with leaves that sparkle. Run, do not walk!

LOVE Florahound! I recently got into gardening and wasn't sure how I'd fare with exotic plants. Leon takes the time to explain the plants, where they're from, and address any concerns or questions regarding your own growing spaces. The jewel box orchid he sold me is THRIVING at my home. When I returned to show photos, Leon seemed equally as excited and my husband and I left with several more plants - outdoor plants this time. Prices seem very fair to me and were marked on the backs of each label when I visited - in line with, if not occasionally cheaper than, bigger nurseries in town (which won't have this inventory of exotic items, of course).
