Smile Big Oak Orchids

For anyone looking to by plants online, check out Big Oak Orchids. In the past, I purchased many plants in the Madison, WI area, and then I found Big Oaks. Most of my orchid collection is from them. They are very reasonable with their prices, and they stand behind anything they ship.

I have now been purchasing from them for over 5 years. I have recommended them to many people. Do yourself a favor, and look them up if you are in the market to buy. Many varieties of plants, especially difficult to find orchids.

That is all I can find too. He does have a good variety, so different plants come up for sale all the time.

You can tell by what's up for auction where his latest importation is from. Recently he's had loads of Asian Cymbidiums from Ten Shin like the two goeringii I grabbed. Then sometimes he has tons of cool growing Masdevallia and other crazy things that scream Ecuagenera. It's really great that he provides access to these otherwise difficult to find in the States plants. The great service is icing on the cake!

Yes, in fact I just had them over for lunch yesterday, and of course I just had to have 5 more plants that I saw on ebay! My wife's getting concerned that the plants will start growing out of the greenhouse windows, it's so full.
