Default Orchids of Los Osos

I ordered two blooming sized Sedirea japonica last night...for $5.25 each! Shipping is $15.00 but if a few of you live near each other, it might be worth placing an order together. Lots of other stuff at 30% off!!!

Sedirea japonica - Bareroot Special! - $5.25 : Orchids Of Los Osos, Home of the Fragrant Orchids

I'll post pics of mine when they arrive

The new 'chids arrived today via 2-day FedEx shipping.
They are both in great shape and the packing was top-notch! They are in 2" pots but came in a large flat box...each pot has a long stake in it to keep them stable during shipping and they were covered and taped with shredded paper.

Very nice...I'd order from them again without hesitation

Nice price! Were these shipped in the bark shown in your photo or bareroot?

Hi Vanessa

When I ordered them, it said "bare-root" but they arrived in beautiful brand new bark mix, in 2" pots.

I put mine into a small plastic basket with a little sphag moss. I'm not sure what my friend Linda will do with hers.

The roots are clean and white with nice healthy tips.

I'm very impressed with this purchase and will pay closer attention to this vendor

What a nice surprise to have them arrive that way. Thanks Sue for the heads up on this vendor! Word of mouth is always welcomed when you can't see 'in person' what you are ordering.
