EBay Seller OrchidBlaine Rocks
Just received my first flask, Acineta chrysantha and another orchid, a Neolauchea pulchella from Blaine Maynor at Orchids For The People, EBay handle OrchidBlaine. The plants are all wonderful, lots of strong seedlings and the Neolauchea is bigger than described. The weather tried its best to screw things up, and I had to wait a bit longer than I wanted to, but everything worked out perfectly! He always has a wide selection of orchids listed, and I can't imagine NOT ordering from him again!

Update! I just finished potting up the seedlings. The seller advertised 25 plants per flask, but I got 40 good strong seedlings potted up, plus a bunch of smaller ones that I potted up as well! Very happy!

Do you have any contact info other than via ebay? I tried their website but none of the links work for me. I'd like to e-mail them and ask if they have any Pleiones which they mention in a listing they currently have for a Calanthe on ebay.

I do see that they offer Pleione formosana (which I have lots of already), but often a grower has 'special' stuff in limited quantities and you just have to ask. This isn't the best time to ship the spring-growing Pleiones, but I am always looking for more sources to tuck away for later in the year.

Just message him on one of the listings he has and ask. He will probably get back to you about it.

Was trying to sidestep the ebay thing for this question.

Their Facebook page.
If you are in the San Jose, CA area, they will be at the San Jose Orchid Expo.

I have asked many questions on ebay and then done the actual purchase elsewhere.
