Micky’s Minis Flora Express: Miniature Plants Crafted as Gifts

What began more than three decades ago as a simple notion — offering tiny plants as a novelty gift — has grown into Micky’s Minis Flora Express. Every mini is selected by hand and handled with care so it arrives healthy and ready to give.

Hand-Picked Quality and Careful Handling

Our growers bring years of know-how to every miniature plant, giving each one the attention it needs. Each order is hand picked so customers receive the finest quality we can offer, and every plant is packed with protection in mind to travel safely.

“He who plants a garden, plants happiness.” ~Chinese Proverb

Our Story

The name took shape in late 1989, when family members gathered to brainstorm what to call the venture. Micky’s Minis honors Micky Heimos Byland, and the tag “Flora Express” was added for trademark purposes. Micky’s Minis operates as a division of N. G. Heimos Greenhouses.

We envisioned our miniature plant line as a gift that happens to be a plant. Its distinctive small-scale offerings come in a two-inch pot and include blooming potted plants, succulents, herbs, foliage and poinsettias. Colorful seasonal and holiday accessories are added to give Micky’s Minis that special gift look.

The early years were devoted to building a market for Micky’s Minis as a gift item, largely by attending up to 60 trade shows a year — regional gift shows, supermarket shows, restaurant and food service shows, convenience store shows and even retail drug store shows.

In 2008, Micky’s Minis earned the Impact Award for excellence in packaging from the Produce Marketing Association for the “All Dressed Up” mini gift set — a clear plastic tube that protects the plants, with colorful top and bottom sections enclosing everything. Then, in October 2010, Micky’s Minis was recognized as the Produce Marketing Association’s Floral Marketer of the Year.
