Marble Ranch Farm anyone??
Default Marble Ranch Farm anyone??

I have been lurking on this website for years without ever ordering anything from them.
I prefer to look at plants in person and buy after good examination.

Has anyone bought orchids from them?

I don't care about service. I just want to know if their plants are healthy and clean.

Thanks, in advance!

Great vendor! They are coming to our show next month. We have also had them come to do a talk and it was very good (on Dendrobiums). Their plants were really large and very healthy! I've never ordered a ship order (just preorder and pickup) so I cannot comment on packaging.

I got 4 plants from them at our orchid show. They had really great clean plants at can't beat them prices. I was shocked that in bloom species and hybrids were 18 to 22 dollars!! All plants were very nice and I'm glad I bought all of them. I recently just posted threads on a Den unicum Cattleya intermedia from there. And you mean Marble *Branch right?

I've bought several plants from Marble Branch Farms. They have nice, healthy plants and good service. My only complaint is that many of their plants are very small and take a couple years to bloom. But many vendors, like Sunset Valley Orchids and Carter and Holmes, sell small plants also.

Just bought from Marble Branch yesterday at the Savannah show! He always has interesting plants at great prices. A few months ago I got a Stan x Paphinia cross, and yesterday I got a Masdevallia from him. Very healthy plants!

I will probably buy something from him in August too if he attends the big greenhouse sale that Steve Arthur is hosting.

Really like Marble Branch - healthy plants, and much larger than I was expecting for the price. And they sent an unexpected bonus plant, also in good health. I'll definitely order from them again.

Mark came through the Texas speaking circuit recently and had a great talk about Dendros. His plants were VERY nice and I got a blooming size C. mossiae 'H&R' (which has been in bloom for a month now!) for $25. I highly recommend them.
