Plantio La Orquidea - Florida grower

Has anybody bought plants from them?

I noticed that their cattleya alliance pricing is $2.00 less than TropiFlora --- no pics to compare quality of plants from both growers nor information regarding customer satisfaction.

Compare shipping. Sometimes there are hugh differences. Also, some of them way over box the plants, and I think they do it to justify the exorbitant shipping charges. By the way, pot size does not always translate to plant size. I like Exotic Orchids of Maui because they always send such nice sized seedlings that they usually bloom way before expected, but need to repot anything that comes in medium or larger bark because of bush snail problems.

Thanks for your input! It definitely makes sense considering the shipping cost when buying plants on-line.

We're visiting our daughter in Florida. Decided to take home a new orchid as a souvenier instead of a shirt. We visited Tropiflora and purchased two new plants. The street addresses are basicaly next door to each other but I didn't see the place you were asking about. Very happy with my purchase. The gentleman waiting on me was very helpful. Prices were good compared to the going rate in the midwest
