Thumbs up Odom's Orchids

I put in orders for several C. intermedia aquinii 'Odom's Red' and a Naomi's Delight hybrid because I like the spotting. Since they mostly sell named cultivars, I've always assumed that I would get tiny plants for the price, but I got a positive surprise this time. The plants were large with multiple growths filling up a 3" to 4" pot. They weren't just barely blooming size like what most other vendors would sell, but definitely mature, full sized plants. For the price, they were actually a steal. Probably the only way to beat this is to import from e.g. Ecuagenera or something. I'll take pictures when I have the time.

There are other gestures I appreciate. When they shipped the order, they actually refunded me a few bucks to account for that shipping costed less than the initial quote on the website. Also, when I emailed to ask about what I should do to treat potential fungus damage on one of the plants, they took the initiative to refund me the cost of that plant.

I tested the plants for viruses in a batch yesterday and all 4 plants are negative.

For such great value and unparalleled service (far better than Ecuagenera in my opinion), Odom's gets my recommendation. They're definitely going on my short list.

Based on your post I decided to check out Odom's. I thought the prices were decent and when I received the plants I thought the prices were actually excellent. They are having a free shipping special right now with a minimum $75 purchase so that makes the purchase even better.

The plants were packaged well and one of them has a sheath with buds inside as well as new growth. Nice sized and healthy plants for the price. A friend of mine also ordered from them and was very happy with what he received. One of his plants has buds and two are in sheath.

I think I'm going to place another order before the free shipping special ends.

Thanks for pointing this out. I might get that sangre de toro with the free shipping.
