'Haiku Mint'

Hello,

This is my first time posting here, so hello to all! I am a new orchid grower (I have 11 orchids right now, vandaceous, dens, oncs, and a phal).

I am wondering if anyone has a reccomendation of where I could purchase a Perr. Motes Leprechaun 'Haiku Mint'. I have seen a few offerings, but the shipping is as much or more than the orchid at the places I have looked. In order to save on the toal costs, I would like to try and get a few other plants on my list at the same time (Encyclia cochleata or green hornet and maybe a Ascocentrum miniatum or curvifolium, and also maybe a vanilla vine).

Thanks for any advice!

Hi Vivienne,

I have checked Oak Hills, they don't have it...there is one on ebay right now, but I'm not sure if I want to go that route (I've had mixed success on ebay).

Thanks for input!

Hi Sruane! I'm not sure of any growers that have all of what you want... I've had good luck on e-bay... I've never had a problem... Sometimes the plants are small... but still, they're healthy. Shipping has gone up everywhere! Gas costs, etc.- It STINKS!!!!!
I have gotten different plants at different locations. You do what you want to.....and if it's worth it to you, you go for it.
