As for online nurseries, there is Sunbelle Exotics. There is also Conner's Carnivores for some of the harder too find VFT cultivars. Barry Rice lists a number of nurseries in his FAQs www.sarracenia.com/faq/faq6280.htmlThere are a quite a few in the Carnivorous Plant Website Ring (see link at bottom left of page) www.carnivorousplants.org/And finally you can try using the message search function of this board to see what sources have been mentioned in previous messages.

Seems he's looking for CP shops in Tampa, not online shops.

Oops, my bad.
AgriStarts III is in Eustis, FL not far NW of Apopka. However, they are not open to the public so you'd need some sort of connection in order to get a tour. You may want to try contacting them any way as they may tell you which of the nearby nurseries resell their plants.
The only nursery I know of in Florida is Sunbelle Exotics in Boca Raton but I don't think they are too keen on visitors since the plant theft.

DeRoose Nursery is also in Apopka/ Eustis area. You will find most of the plant nurseries in Apopka are wholesale, and you would need a retail licence to buy plants. You could always visit plant growers under the guise of looking for work . You may find you would like to work at one of them, for the educational experience. I doubt the hourly wages would tempt you! Take care, Steven Stewart
