I haven't ordered from them nor had I heard of them. They have some interesting species but seem to be a bit pricey.

I may have to test them out on a plant just to see what I get.

Dang, I have to agree with Harry. The prices cause a bit of recoil for me. Pretty plants, though. Are you looking to add to a collection or start a commercial venture?

See, I didnt think the prices were that bad. Less than most at Paramount Orchids. I was looking at a couple of Catts, seedling size for 15$. You pay between 10-15 at Clouds as well. Maybe your thinking US dollars??

I have dealt with all 3 of the mentioned vendors via mailorder and Paramount & Orchid in Our Tropics in person. The size of the plants from Cloud's will always be much larger than your expectations = excellent value and the quality is always excellent. Paramount has great plants and excellent service. Orchids in Our Tropics I prefer to shop in person to choose what I am getting for the price.

Where are you located Chiral224? Are any of these vendors close enough for personal shopping?

From my past experiences, I would recommend Cloud's for your first order. I'm sure you will be impressed.
