Clear Pots - Orchid Board

Oscarman · #1 07-13-2005, 02:27 PM

Does anyone know of a Canadian source for clear/translucent plant pots?

A couple of years ago I purchased some from Charley's Greenhouse. They were an excellent product, but would like to shop a little closer to home if possible.

Hey there Oscarman!!

I also live in Edmonton and am currently trying to get some myself. I have been in contact with Ray to see if I can order some from him for cheap. If it’s going to cost too much through him then I will ask around in the society….I will be seeing my fellow executive members next Saturday for a BBQ and will see if they can help.

Sounds like a perfect opportunity to tell others about OrchidBoard and how it can facilitate the communication of your society's members and management

enjoy the BBQ

Hey Marty! Actually this board's URL was put into our newsletter in May or June for everyone...that's how I found out about it.

I know, I got a copy. It was a nice write up too! Forums are really cool when a community of people, that actually interract a little in real life join together. That's why I'd really like for societies to join in. I know they're still a bit weary since it's a new site.... OB needs a bit more time to grow. We'll get there

I just need a bit more time to add few more features and spruce things up a little with flash intro, etc

Yeah I always look forward to our meetings....they are always so much fun and soooooo many plants to buy!!

I know I have seen Chuck Taylor's name here somewhere....he is a past director who grows and sells beautiful Phrags! I just got one from him a couple of months ago.

I'm really hoping to hear from Ray about the clear pots though....maybe if enough of us in the same area order from him, it won't cost as much for shipping & handling.

I didn't see a reply from Ray, so I'll jump in and state that I have a gazillion sizes of clear pots, and can easily ship to Canada..it's fairly reasonable to ship to you too!

There may be duties to be paid on the Canadian side of things, but so far none of my Canadian customers has mentioned them to me.. I know some things are dutiable and some not.
