I have only had awful experiences with clown alley orchids. I will never do business with them again.

Me too.

:waving i received my plant yesterday and am really pleased with it as It is much bigger than a previous Podangis I had and lost quite a few years ago. It even has a second growth on it . Hoping I can grow and keep it this time ! :crossfing
here's a pic
ps: bought from Nardotto

Wow! That is huge! Nice plant!

Nice!

Lesson learned.

They were the only vendor sell all five plants from the final poll. I wanted to get them all but also wanted to save some shipping.

Oh wow, I might have to order another Podangis this summer! Just have to time my order with my vacation in France...

Hausermann's still has the Podangis Dactyloceras if you want it. Their shipping is not cheap, IMO. It starts at 10$ and works its way up from there based on how much you spend.

I'm very happy with my plant, even though the darned thing had a centipede in it. The roots looked fantastic. It did need a repot when I got it, but that gives you a chance to look things over and make sure you got a healthy orchid.

I'm really sorry to hear that you had a problem. I have only had one bad plant from them in the past. Everything else has always been way bigger than expected and overgrowing the pots.

Then again, I have only ever ordered from him as pre-orders to pick up at the show. So I see everything before I pay. That is really unfortunate that you had bad experiences.

My Podangis has a new root! I have it on the west side of the GH in a semi-shaded part in a very loose mixture. It gets watered every other day unless the medium is still damp.
