Swamper, I wish I could speak to Ruben. But I can't reach them. And no call has come back.
I'm just gonna keep on trying to call.
Thanks for your help Swamper!

I myself have just opened 5 bottles of Vandas. I buy them in "Johny Walker" bottles with 50 plants in each. I wash the plants and put them in a plastic basket for at least a week, depending on their size. Then they go into square pots with no potting media, wire hanger and put into the shade house, water and fertilize.........and wait.............. for about a year.

BTW, I went to Ruben's site to try to buy some Vanda Flask, but didn't have any luck.
Do you know if we can buy on their site??

I have a site in Thailand that exports to America Etc.

They have a good selection...... Only problem is that you have to buy a reasonable quantity, so maybe a few of you could get together.

They are a good orchid supplier and i have bought flasks from them in the past.

Jackie that's so cool. I know he specializes in Cats but I figured he must have some around that he doesn't advertise. I very happy for you.

I buy them from a local lab......for about $3 US per "Johny Walker" bottle of 40 haha. They're not export quality, but they're still good
