Apopka - Indoor Foliage Capital of the World

Apopka’s claim to fame is its major export product. Known as the “Indoor Foliage Capital of the World,” Apopka produces more than half of the world’s commercially grown foliage, utilizing over 30 million square feet of greenhouse space. Other sectors are active as well, including high-tech and manufacturing.

Just 15 minutes from downtown Orlando, Apopka is close to area attractions yet far enough away to maintain its out-of-the-way appeal. Residents and visitors enjoy a wonderful array of outdoor recreational choices, from swimming in the refreshing waters of Rock Springs to some of the finest bass fishing in the world.

Housing here is affordable. Selections throughout Apopka include acreage suitable for horses and upscale custom homes in country club communities.
