Orchidphile: July 2020 Pre-Order (Mail Order) List
INCLUDING SOME JUST-IN & FABULOUS NEW PHALAENOPSIS FROM TAIWAN !
Even at this early date, several of our usual fall shows & events have been cancelled due to continuing concerns over Covid19. This means we’ll be filling mail orders right through the fall season. With special thanks to our Taiwan grower, new stock that just came in is even more mature & vigorous. However, due to Covid19, air shipments from Taiwan & broker fees have quadrupled, forcing us to have to charge more for some plants ~ but considering the amazing quality of this recent shipment, they’re well worth it.
The Good News is because we cut back many spikes early, we’re seeing a second spiking from many of our multi-floral minis & even several of our miniatures in other genera.
And Even Better News, our Habenarias were late in popping up their new growths & a few are now large enough to be shipped safely. For the next couple of months you’ll find them listed under Other Genera.
BUT THE BEST NEWS OF ALL ~ We will be joining J&L Orchids (https://jlorchids.com/) from July 24-25 for their annual Summer Open House (be sure to check their website for hours & updates to this event).
In keeping with Covid19 guidelines, the guest vendors will be outdoors under tents so everyone stays safe.
Please be sure to bring your face mask, your enthusiasm & your credit cards !
And if you can’t join us for this must-needed “orchid fix”, please be sure to place your mail order
as soon as possible so we can remove your plants from sale prior to the J&L Open House sales.
The beginning of Summer’s Bounty of novelty fragrant One-of-a-Kind Phalaenopsis:
As new seedlings from this group flower, they’ll be posted on our monthly list & our Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/orchidphile
Seedling populations can often flower with a great deal of variation so we’ve chosen to number each seedling
as it flowers so you’ll know exactly what to expect. Right now they’re just beginning to spike up
so check our FB page often & PM us to reserve a particular plant.
MAIL ORDER SHIPPING INFORMATION:
Our next shipping dates are the weeks of July 20th & July 27th .
We encourage early orders so they can be shipped while our weather is still perfect ~
this way you also won’t be disappointed if we’ve sold out of something you had your eye on.
