Our Story
Omnia Botanica™ is Latin for All Things Botanical.®
A horticulture centered plant shop & flower farm, we specialize in a diverse array of Amaryllis, Dahlia, and Lilium. Whether you are new to growing or an avid collector, we offer a seasonal selection of species and hybrids bred for both beauty and garden vigor.
While many of the flowerbulbs offered are imported from the Netherlands and beyond, whenever possible, they spend at least one season planted on our very own farm in the foothills of north Georgia. This allows us to confirm variety ID and ensure your bulbs are healthy, of premium blooming size, and free from pests and disease.

A Lifetime in the Making
With over 25 years experience growing plants as a hobbyist, Owner/Operator Jon Poss can trace his deeply rooted passion to early childhood. Originally from DeLand, FL, his love for all things botanical began at the early age of 10.
Particularly fascinated with flowerbulbs, he quickly grew fond of the genera now offered by Omnia Botanica. The year round sunshine and subtropical climate proved ideal for growing Amaryllis (Hippeastrum). Although uncommon for the region, he also developed a knack for cultivating heat tolerant dahlias such as the iconic Karma 'Fuschiana' (now retired) and lilium including both the species L. longiflorum (Easter Lily) as well as Orienpet cultivars such as 'Scheherazade' & 'Black Beauty'.
With a Bachelor’s degree in Business Management & Marketing from Stetson University, 15+ years experience in Product Development, Supply Chain, Merchandising and Hospitality Operations, Omnia Botanica is by far his most cherished endeavor.

A Family Affair
With experience running a fernery and a succesful healthcare clinic in Central Florida, Jon’s parents, recently retired, are an invaluable asset to the team. From growing operations on our 10 acre farm to clerical duties, Robert & Theresa are always game for any challenge.
Celebrating their 40th anniversary this year, the couple also enjoys growing a wide variety of vegetables, herbs, fruit trees, grapes, as well as ornamental perennials, flowering trees and shrubs. The more temperate climate and fertile soils of Georgia have proven to be quite different from the subtropics of Central Florida to which they lived prior.
Aside from tending to the 10 acre estate, Robert and Theresa enjoy a wide variety of hobbies and activities. From playing racquetball to tubing the Chattahoochee to dancing at Oktoberfest in full Bavarian costume, there is never a dull moment!
