Is this really bad news? I am not familiar with the nursery.......why are they closing?

Did you happen to click on the 305 ORCHIDS FOR SALE link?

I clicked on that link and found an orchid with yellow flowers at an advertised price of 17,000 dollars.

No, that link was to an ebay ad selling the Phone number: 305 ORCHIDS for $17,000!!!

Amazing, huh?

I would not buy one plant from them unless I had 500 gals. of Orthene and a seperate green house . Gin

The site said something about the last update being sometime in March of 2006, so I guess selling off the exclusive phone number is the last step for them, anyway

I received my Orchids Magazine today and there's an ad for Miller's Sale so it's still going on, for those interested
