Here's our story
Who am i?
Hello. My name is Samuel A. Irizarry Santiago, and I am the founder of Orchid Express, alongside my wife Loriane Ithier Marrero. The idea arose from the desire to continue my grandfather's legacy and his orchid business, Orchid by Elí, to which he dedicated over 50 years of his life. During that time, he developed and sold hybrids like "Beauty Holiday," "Den Yellow Sweet Fantasy," and "Prossavola Coppery Drop Utuado" among others that he created and registered.
How it got started
From 2021 to 2023, I was his faithful apprentice, learning everything from caring for orchids, dividing them, pollination, their resilience, species names, and even how to identify them. I feel like I'm reconnecting with him in a way. I've always been close to my grandfather's nurseries to the point that i used to run around in them when i was a kid.
New beginnings and future
With his passing and a desire for personal growth, my goal is to establish an internationally leading company in exporting orchids made in Puerto Rico. At the same time, I aim to use them in my other professional role as part of horticultural therapy in psychological treatments.
Join me in being part of my dream and together, let's revive my grandfather's hybrids and expand this business on a large scale.
