The Charles F. Fuchs family arrived in South Florida to open a grocery store soon after 1900. Charles, Jr. started Holsum Bakery in Homestead in 1916, then moved the business to South Miami where the inticing aroma of fresh baked bread was a pleasant drive-by attraction from 1934-1980.

Charles and son Freddie Fuchs collected orchids, amassing large numbers and gaining experience in growing and propigating methods over the years.

Bob Fuchs is a third generation orchid grower and his highly respected operation, R. F. Orchids is one of the finest in the South.

Here you will find thousands of exotic orchids growing in a hammock like setting accented with gazebos, ponds, tiki huts and lush landscaping. The orchids are everywhere, with many of the finest on display at the entrance. Take your time looking around and don’t be afraid to ask questions of the staff.

They’re always winning awards for outstanding work in orchid breeding and growing. When you browse through the greenhouses, it’s easy to see why.

With an enviable private collection of hybrids, Bob is world renown as an expert. He also leads fantastic travel tours to exotic destinations such as Indonesia, Borneo and Thailand for orchid fanatics. Bob or a member of his staff often give personal tours of the property at 11am and 3pm, so call ahead and find out if he might be available when you visit.

Don’t miss the chance to take home a few great orchids. The prices are quite reasonable and the variety is outstanding.
