Orchids Blossom For The Holidays At Linwood Family Business

Exotic, beautiful flowers make fine gifts for the holidays, so this is a good season for Waldor Orchids.

Walter Off, whose family has been growing and selling the tropical plants in Linwood for 85 years, said digital sales help at this time of year.

“We have eBay and Amazon stores, and especially around the holidays we’ve found that makes a big difference,” said Off, 62, of Egg Harbor Township. “We’re selling a lot more on the Internet.”

Waldor’s fame among serious gardeners and its half-century of finding and raising orchids from around the world give it a product line highly suitable for online sales — much in demand and not many competing sources.
