Palmer orchids -OR- mooooove over, Fred. There’s a new packing queen!!

[DirtyCoconuts]

I placed an order of one plant. I was looking for another Den and i saw this it was amazing and it was reasonably priced.

I saw 4” basket and assumed it was going to be decent sized and pulled the trigger.


Today a four foot box arrived at my door, fairly beat up. I was concerned and opened it quickly. Inside I found a 3.5’, beautiful plant with two full spikes, packed in the most incredible way I have ever seen!!

Paper, shred, tissue paper, tape, more paper and more of all!

And a sweet, very large bonus plant, a labeled 2” den that is in need of an up pot!!

I’ll post pics later but I have to give all praise to Palmer orchids and their excellent proprietor!!!

The post was more about the seller than the plant. Err yeah! That’s the ticket. This was all about Palmer. Wink

I’ll make a thread about the orchid separately

I love Palmer Orchids. Every plant that I've ever received from there is super healthy and they also tend to be quite a bit bigger than I had anticipated. They also offer specimen size plants from time to time.

They always do a great job with shipping. Only downside with them is their shipping costs tend to make orders significantly more expensive.

if i get more for my money i am okay with that.

i just dont like inflated prices with no inflated quality or service
