Importing for the first time?
Our desk walks new importers through documents, permits, and port selection — free, no obligation.
Wholesale Monstera, Philodendron, Alocasia, Anthurium, and rare foliage plants—with export documentation and secure packaging.
Eight curated families of tissue-culture foliage, sized and priced for U.S. wholesale programs.
Updated weekly as lab batches harden off. Availability changes fast — quotes lock allocation.
We built Meristem & Co. around one observation: U.S. buyers don't lose money on rare plants — they lose money on surprises. So we removed the surprises.
We ship to the United States every week. Our team knows the paperwork, the plant inspection stations, and the seasonal pitfalls — so your first order feels like your tenth.
Every lot comes from indexed mother stock in the lab. The variegation you approve is the variegation that arrives — across hundreds of plantlets, not just the display tray.
From albo Monsteras to Frydek Variegata, we track U.S. demand signals and keep the varieties your customers actually ask for in continuous production.
Certificates, invoices, and packing lists prepared correctly the first time, with direct support for your customs broker when questions come up.
Insulated boxes, sterile hydrated media, barrier film, and winter heat packs — a system designed and tested for 10+ days of international live-plant transit.
Start at MOQ and scale by season. Your account manager tracks your sell-through and reserves production slots before you run out.

Submit target varieties, quantities, and your destination state.
Receive quotation, availability, MOQ, and lead time — in writing.

Plants are QC-inspected, packed, and prepared with export documentation.
Air freight is arranged with tracking, plus customs and import guidance.
“We provide phytosanitary certificates, packing lists, invoices, and supporting export documents. Buyers are responsible for confirming current USDA/APHIS and state-level import requirements before ordering.”
Plantlets stay in community trays until roots fully fill the plug. We never rush bare-root stock out the door to hit a date.
Every batch is hardened in shade houses for 2–3 weeks with gradually reduced humidity, so plantlets survive real-world conditions — not just the lab.
100% visual inspection plus laboratory spot checks. Any batch with flagged material is held back and re-grown, not shipped.
Sterile plug media, moisture barrier film, insulated liners, seasonal heat packs, and ventilated export boxes tested against 10-day scenarios.
Every tray and box carries botanical name, cultivar, lot number, and count — so customs clearance and your inventory intake are both painless.

Small-to-medium mixed orders across genera — plantlets that acclimate fast and look shelf-ready within two weeks, so your display case never sits half-empty.

High-demand varieties on a predictable restock calendar, with detailed specs, photos, and sizing data you can drop straight into your listings.

Larger volume orders, recurring supply agreements, and custom variety planning with lab production reserved for the lines your network needs.
“First order of Thai Constellation and White Wizard arrived in nine days — zero losses, and every plantlet true to the listing photos. The phytosanitary paperwork cleared customs without a single question.”
“Variegation accuracy is what keeps me reordering. With Meristem I don't gamble — I get forty-five stable albo plants, not a lottery ticket.”
“They walked our customs broker through every document. And the packing — moisture film, insulated liners, winter heat packs — is the best we've seen from any overseas supplier.”
“Communication is fast and specific: photos of the actual plants before dispatch, tracking within hours of the flight, and honest answers about what's really in stock.”
“We plan quarterly restocks around their production calendar. Lead times quoted are lead times kept — which is rarer in this industry than any plant we buy.”
“Our collector customers notice the difference immediately — plantlets sized accurately, labeled correctly, and acclimating within a week of arrival.”
Everything first-time importers ask us. Something missing? Our desk replies within one business day.
Ask us directlyYes. We ship weekly via air freight to major U.S. plant inspection airports — including Miami, New York, and Los Angeles — and coordinate onward delivery to all 50 states. Most customers receive plants 7–14 days from dispatch confirmation.
Every shipment includes a phytosanitary certificate issued by the national plant protection organization of origin, a commercial invoice, a packing list, and the airway bill. Certificates of origin and fumigation records can be prepared when your state or broker requires them.
It depends on the genera you're importing and your destination state. Many ornamental aroids are broadly admissible, but plants for planting generally require USDA/APHIS authorization, and states like Florida, California, and Arizona add their own rules. We flag anything unusual at the quotation stage — but the buyer is responsible for confirming current federal and state requirements.
MOQ is typically 20–50 plantlets per variety depending on the crop, with a 100-plantlet minimum per shipment. Varieties can be mixed within one box, so a single order can combine 6–10 different lines.
Standard terms are 50% deposit to reserve stock or production slots, with the balance due before dispatch. We accept bank transfer (T/T) and Wise. Established accounts can set up recurring-order schedules after a positive order history.
In-stock varieties are prepared and dispatched within 5–7 business days of payment. Pre-order and lab-produced lots typically take 4–8 weeks depending on batch timing. Air transit adds 3–7 days, plus customs clearance at the port of entry.
Roots travel in sterile, moisture-controlled media sealed with barrier film; plantlets are cushioned in insulated, ventilated export boxes. Winter shipments include approved heat packs, and every box is labeled with variety, lot number, and quantity.
Yes — mixed orders are our standard. Combine varieties across genera as long as each meets its MOQ. If availability shifts before dispatch, our team will suggest close substitutes for your approval before anything changes.
Yes. Pre-orders reserve plantlets from upcoming lab batches with a deposit. You'll receive photos of the actual lot before dispatch, and pre-order customers get first allocation on limited new arrivals.
Document the condition with photos within 48 hours of arrival. Our live-arrival guarantee covers plantlets that fail due to packaging or carrier delays — we replace the affected plants or issue credit toward your next order.
Yes, on qualifying volumes. We can print branded care cards, sleeves, and labels with your logo, and pack in retail-ready counts so plants move from box to bench to shelf faster.
We're a wholesale-first operation. Collectors running a resale business — online shops, market stalls, local sales — are welcome to apply under our collector-reseller category. We don't sell single plants for personal collections.
You'll receive our current FOB price list, live availability, and MOQ & lead-time sheet — no obligation.
Live availability, indicative FOB pricing per plantlet, and MOQs for every variety. Request a quote to lock allocation and confirm the current batch.
We're a propagation and export company dedicated to one thing: making genuinely rare foliage a dependable, repeatable part of U.S. plant retail.

Meristem & Co. started as a two-person tissue-culture lab outside Bangkok, supplying variegated aroids to Southeast Asian nurseries. When U.S. demand for rare foliage exploded, we saw the same problem everywhere: collectors could find rare plants, but shops couldn't find them reliably.
So we rebuilt the business around wholesale export — a central laboratory, a network of eight partner greenhouses across Thailand and Indonesia, and a U.S.-focused support desk in Miami that works your business hours, not ours.
Today we supply independent plant shops, online sellers, garden-center chains, and distributors in 38 states — many of them on quarterly restock schedules we plan together.
Every variety we sell starts as indexed mother stock in culture — verified for variegation stability, growth habit, and trueness to type before it enters production. If a batch drifts, it doesn't ship.
Our team includes former nursery operators, so we think in sell-through, not just in plantlets. When we recommend a variety for your market, it's based on what's moving in U.S. shops right now.

“Make genuinely rare plants a dependable, repeatable part of U.S. retail — not a lottery ticket.”
Variegation and growth habit are verified against the indexed clone before any batch leaves our network.
Clean paperwork is a feature of the product, not an afterthought. Our rejection rate at U.S. ports reflects that.
We'd rather plan your fourth quarter with you than win your first order with a discount.
