Default Treetop Orchids on Ebay

Has anyone purchased orchids from this vendor in the past? If so how was the experience? They have a Den. aberrans and Tolumnia sylvestris at $11.99 each plus $6.50 shipping and $1.50 for each additional item

I've never heard of them. But will surely buy from them too
If you look for them, hard to find, as I found out.
Seller name of "oorchid".

Ebay store name of "Treetop Orchids"
eBay Store - Treetop Orchids: Cattleya Species, Dendrobium Species, Cattleya Primary Hybrids

I just recently bought some plants from them and was quite happy -
got the tolu

also got a nbs L purpurata which is extremely healthy looking! had to pot up on this plant had many healthy roots and really no bad ones


(prior to repot)

excellent communication and very fast shipping as well as reasonable shipping charge!

if the plant is not listed as bloom size or no indication I would ask them

all in all tho I am very happy with the plants I received from them

I bought from oorchids (treetop) last month. I can't remember exactly what I got, I'll have to check. I know one was a B. Maikai x B. Little Stars. Nice and healthy. I put it in a 4" basked from FirstRays and gave it to my sister for her B-day in Oct.

I can say that for ebay plants, I was happy. Probably the most reasonable shipping costs out there. As a matter of fact, I think I bought from them twice. Now I'm off to outbid some one on a Tolumnia.

I buy a lot from oorchids. His plants are ALWAYS healthy, good size (and true to his descriptions), very reasonable shipping and greatly reduced when buying more than one. You won't be disappointed. Good luck.

Okay, I did purchase the Den. aberrans and Tolumnia sylvestris. I'll post pics once I get them. I had them shipped at work and can't wait.
