Default Where do you aquire your paph/phrag flask in Canada?

Hi everyone,
I have a questions for the Canadians on the forum.
I was wondering from where you were acquiring your flasks or compots? Is their hobbist doing there own flasking? Canadian vendor or even hobbist with surplus?

All the best
Math

Forestview Gardens - Forestview Gardens, Paphiopedilum Orchid Specialists, Orchids for sale, Orchid Care, Vancouver, Canada
Contact Charlotte or Terry, they handle a lot of Paphs and may have/be willing to sell you a flask or two.

Paramount Orchids - Paramount Orchids:Main
Chuck or Bryon, occasionally have extra flasks to sell.

Zephyrus Orchids - Zephyrus Orchids
John or Nic, they have a flask listing and you can also sign up for their mailing list to receive updates of their stock (including flasks).

Unfortunately Peter at Green Canyon no longer sells flasks. They were excellent quality.

Many times I have ordered my flasks from Sam Tsui at Orchid Inn in the USA. He regularily comes to Canada and will ship across Canada from Toronto several times per year. He has excellent crosses and quality.

Hope that helps you out Math. Good luck.

John has some on special this month. I don't have much luck with paph/phrag but his other orchids were always really nice. They are great people too. I miss having them in town. Most local stores, have noids if anything, or they look like they are about to die.

J.P. Faust of Phrag Plus in Quebec is an awesome hobbyist to get unique phrags from. You need to email him as his website is not up. He does his own hybridizing and they are truely Canadian phrags. I'm not sure of he will sell a whole flask, but he does sell his crosses
