Wood Hanging Orchid Planters - Orchid Board

Faz · #1 11-25-2008, 04:20 PM

So here I am in rainy Los Angeles and I wondering if anyone can help me locate a store that sells the wooden slatted type of hanging baskets for Vandas? I am staying in the Glendale - Pasadena area.

Thanks for any help as in British Columbia they have packed away their plant and flower supplies until next year.

Regards...Faz.

If you are in rainy l.a. maybe you should try the plastic ones because they won't rot.

depending on the size of your plants, you could consider growing them without baskets...I have two that are doing very nicely that way

Thanks for all the comebacks. I really appreciate the info as I'm desperate for a couple of these.
