I have actually purchased few orchids that did not come from very local sources. Most of my plants come from trading divisions, or the occasional good find at Lowes. I have orchids that I recall coming from only 5 true orchid growers/vendors (excluding Better Gro, through Lowes, or similar). Jewel Orchids (still pretty local), Carter & Holmes (visited their greenhouse to buy), and . . . DECADES ago, Jones & Scully (long out of business), Cali Orchids in Barranquitas, PR (changed hands long ago), and another orchid nursery in eastern Puerto Rico (can't recall the name, likely out of business too).
I have been fortunate in that the vendors I have purchased from have all been good ones.
