Orchid Nurseries Search Engine
When I'm shopping around for a specific orchid I click on each orchid nursery link that I have saved in my bookmarks/favorites folder. Then I search each website to see if they carry the orchid I'm looking for in order to compare prices.
It's not the most efficient process so I decided to create a custom google search engine that only searches my bookmarked nursery websites. It works just like the regular google search except it only returns results from orchid nurseries. The biggest drawback is that while google indexing is good... it's not perfect...so there's always the possibility that one of the nurseries might carry the orchid but google hasn't indexed the page it's on... so the nursery wouldn't show up in the results. Although, when a page isn't indexed by google it's usually through a fault of the website owner and not google. Here's the link to the search engine.... Orchid Nurseries Search Engine. So far it searches 21 orchid nurseries. Mainly US nurseries that have fairly extensive species offerings. Andy's Orchids Botanica Ltd. Camp Lot A Noise Tropicals Clackamas Orchids Clown Alley Orchids Fantasy Orchids, Inc. Hoosier Orchid Company J & L Orchids Jewell Orchids Lowe's Orchids Mountain Orchids New World Orchids Oak Hil Gardens Orchid Web Orchidaceae Parkside Orchid Nurseries Petite Plaisance Santa Barbara Orchid Estate SLO Gardens Orchids Sorella Orchids Tropical Orchid Farm Let me know if there are any additional orchid nursery websites that you would like added to the list and I'll be happy to do so. |
