Send a phalaenopsis to a friend in Oz

[en3rmax]

Hi there,

I have a friend who lives in Darwin Australia at the moment she is from the uk and easter two years ago she sent me a phalaenopsis as a gift this was my first orchid and it doing very well.

It's her birthday at the start of feb and i would like to send her a Phal, is it best to order one from the uk or can you order one from a florist where she lives?

Have any of the OB members done this?

I wonder if you can get phalaenopsis as early as feb in Darwin?
