OLYMPIC ORCHIDS

This is a heads-up to let you know that we do not ship plants from Thanksgiving (November 27 this year) through New Years (January 1). This is due to the combination of freezing cold weather at many destinations and transit points and the possibility of delays due to the holiday shipping rush. Even if you are in Florida the package may be routed through a hub like Chicago or Denver, where very low temperatures can cause freezing of plants even with a heat pack. Better safe than sorry.

If you are on the West Coast at destinations not subject to dangerously cold weather, we may still ship to you. After looking at the weather forecast we will make the call.

If you are in any other part of the US and want your plants to arrive this year, you should order well before the last week of November.

We will no longer be including the old hard-copy care sheets with your shipments. All of them are online in a page called “Care Sheets“. That way shipping becomes more efficient for us and, best of all, you will not be receiving a lot of extra paper that you probably don’t want. These are the same care sheets that we always used to send, just in pdf form. Over time we will update them, but for now they are the same as ever. They are in more or less alphabetical order.
