Not necessarily. Why do you think so?
I'm so sorry for this continuing off. Hope, Bolero will forgive us. Or we can move to private messaging to continue this discussion about peculiarities of orchid growing in Ukraine.

No it's fine, keep going with the discussion. It's good in a way that the discussion isn't just about the plant but other things as well.
I find it entertaining and informative.

I was thinking in terms of price and dead or alive arrival... that if you have to pay a lot and go through middlemen that you would actually very carefully decide what plants you want and why and not just pick anything from a list?

Yes, of course. But don't you think about what you get? I always think for few months about what to order next time. And I always get less than I want, unfortunately.... But from the other side it is good, because my growing space is limited at the moment.

I haven't really made big orders [well just the one time I did ] with nurseries, though I haven't got a proper GH setup yet and when it is I'll bet that empty space will be filled up in no time
Generally I've ordered 1-2 plants when buying other supplies like pots.
If there were any nurseries closer to me [say 20 minutes] I bet I'd be buying 1 everyday!
