Has anyone ordered from Clouds Orchids and also live in Toronto?

I've recently been buying a lot of orchids. Just absolutely love them. My recent purchases are from Clouds Orchids (cloudsorchids.com) here in Ontario, Canada (1 dendrobium and 2 cattleyas). I was wondering if anyone who has ordered from them before, was wiling to share their experience. How did your orchids look? What kind of orchids did you order? Were you pleased with your order?

I'm getting so impatient and excited!! They ship my purchases on June 15 (a week from now). I just cant wait!

If anyone has purchased from Clouds and lives in the GTA/ Toronto, I would also like to know how long it took for your parcel to arrive to your home (from the day of shipping to when the parcel got to your door!) and around how much the shipping was (I just kind was hoping for a range nothing too specific, I know our orders and location may be pretty different but I'm just kinda curious!)

Thanks a ton!

Well, I am not from Toronto, but I just received a small order from Cloud's. They will send you notice of how much on the day that it is shipped. Their plants have always been spotless and excellent. I have ordered for a few years already. For me in Saskatchewan they shipped expedited parcel post which took 4 days. I am sure they used to do Xpress post but it sure seems like the rate has gone up recently. My parcel with 3 plants cost $15.00 to ship. There is a $5.00 drop off fee as well, but at least they are up front about that. You won't go wrong with a Cloud's plant.
