Outstanding!
Ordered from this grower just before the snow flew and received the best quality plants ever from a mail order.
4 Paphs:
Primulinum x delenatii ‘Deperle’
Maudiae ‘Clair de Lune’ x philippinense ‘alba’
(Pulsar x Cyberspace) x charlesworthii
Usuzuki (Muriel Constance ‘Nick of Time’ x Psyche ‘Speckled Thrush)

Extremely happy with my purchase. Charlotte and Terry were very prompt and helpful. Can't wait until spring when I can shop with them again.

I'll post some pics of the plants.

Maybe they'd be interested in becoming an OrchidBoard sponsor since we have so many Canadian members

I have to agree with Oscarman on quality of plants from Forestview Gardens. They are outstanding, even their packaging is superior to any other I have received through mail order.

This is Paph. (Pulsar x Cyberspace) x charlesworthii, I received from them this summer in spike.

I would love one of their Paph philippinense alba but they are sold out. Maybe by spring they will have more.

This years OSA show they got an AM/AOS too for Paph Hsinying Web x charlesworthii 'Elizabeth' that is pending.

They are excellent people to talk to, I just didn't have the room to buy more plants. Their mottled leaf types crossed with charlseworthii look like they are winners!

If you request, I'm sure most vendors will send something in spike or sheath Many of their plants at the show were in spike

Matthews, there is a $5 surcharge for their plants that are in spike. Well worth it as their plant are a good value to start with.
