Excellent Pots - Great Source

I just wanted to report that I purchased a small batch of clear pots that have UV inhibitor in them so that they should last a LONG time and seem to be EXCELLENT quality. I ordered them one day and they were shipped the next day fedex and arrived the day after that. Who could ask for more? The owner of this business even sent me a few extra pots beyond my order at no expense and also included a FREE clay orchid that I promptly displayed at my wife's labtop computer table! I know which side my bread is buttered on! I have absolutely nothing personal to gain by sharing this vendor with you all - but when I see a good deal I would like to share it with my friends! They sell other supplies as well, but here is the specific page that has the clear pots - http://www.chulaorchids.com/SitePage4.0.htm#4.1

that little pink flowering thing is a real orchid?? so tiny...

those pots look great mike, very similiar to the inserts that came with my 3 most recent phal purchases (inserted into standard red clay pots). thanks for sharing the info, i think the clear pots are great as you can see a visual of the roots and water content without disturbing the roots!

One of the things I'm finding about the clear pots is the phal roots do a better job staying contained - my main purpose for this batch was to move my phals in them as they outgrow their current pots.
