Yolanda Cuesta: Creating Orchid Planters!
Yolanda Cuesta
Yolanda Cuesta graduated from Florida International University (FIU), in 1986.
Though her passion for orchids started much earlier, in 1983. Cattaleyas and their species, were considered her favorites. Her passion for collecting orchids, would eventually lead her to start hybridizing, around 1984. Her overall goal in breeding was creating compact Cattaleyas with art shades tones.
Quest Orchids open up in Horse Country, in 1994. Quest currently grows Cattaleyas and many other varieties of orchids, even including Vandas. They can be located off the Turnpike, on exit 23. There hours of operation are Tuesday-Saturday, 9:30 am – 5 pm.
