Where to buy vandas?
 
I want a couple of more vanda orchids and wanted to know if you all had any ideas on where to buy them. I want high quality orchids for relatively cheap prices. Thanks in advanced.

I can't answer your question - so just giving you a bump! ;)

Swamper 07-11-2010 07:23 PM

DO you know exactly which ones you want. Maybe I can help you get them. Where do you live?

Chris147 07-11-2010 10:48 PM

No I don't have a certain one I just mabye wanted to browse the selection. I live in virgina.

R.F. Orchids will please you in every way you are looking except maybe price. But their quality and customer service, at least to me, is great. Then again I deal with them in person so I can't speak of online ordering experience since I have none.

I agree. R.F. Orchids in Homestead has been growing Vandas for as long as I can remember and they have won many awards. I love to visit their nursery even though I grow Catts and not Vandas. Their web-site might not be as fancy as some but they do grow some great Vandas.

I'd have to go with everyone and say that the number one vendor coming to my mind is RF. They are a bit pricey, but you'll always get quality plants from them.

Others to look into are Motes' orchids, Smiley's Orchids, Camp Lot A Noise Tropicals, Santa Barbara Orchid Estate (though the selection is limited), and Orchids Limited (OrchidWeb). :)

If you find one you like I might be able to locate it for you. Then give you a price of what it would cost you for me to ship it to you myself.

RF Orchids is fantastic!!! Of course so is Banjohng(sp) orchids but I don't know if they ship.

RF is vanda crack. They currently have seedlings of their new crosses for 6.00 each or 6 for 30.00 bucks (something like this) I just bought 3 baby renantheras from them. :)

Swamper--you are too kind!

Ha!! Thou laugh-est at me!! But thy knowest tis the truth I speak!!

Ok, enough of my lame attempt at Shakespearean English.

You KNOW what I mean--I think the lemonade they serve is laced with a drug called "iwanteveryorchidinthisgreenhousenomatterhowmuchit costs" with a touch of crack. :)

Vanda crack LOL. :biggrin:

Their vandas have a certain seductive power over me. I think they were femmes fatales in a past life. And I wasn't a big vanda person to begin with...that should tell you a lot. :rofl:

Swamper 07-12-2010 09:06 PM

That lemonade is really off the chain. I ended up buying some of that too after getting their recipe.
