About Us

Our Story

Rooted in a Love of Plants

01

We are a family business in San Jose, California.

Plants Without Borders is a California grown, BIPOC, family owned business run by the Javier family. We are not a marketplace, not a dropshipper, and not a storefront that disappears when something goes wrong. When you order from us, you are buying from people whose names and faces are on this page. We sell wholesale only, to plant sellers, growers, and shops across the United States.

In 2023, Mark was delivering pizzas.

He worked at Domino's and a cheesesteak shop. When the rare plant market took off, he started importing tissue culture plantlets and selling them to small businesses who could not source them on their own. We built this from nothing, which is why we understand the person trying to build something from nothing.

03

Our mission is to make rare plants accessible to small businesses.

The best varieties have always gone to whoever could buy in the largest volume. We think a seller running a booth, a livestream, or a small shop deserves access to the same plants at a price that lets them make a living. That is the entire reason this company exists.
