Top 5 Ways to Save Money When Buying Orchids
Tuesday, May 8th, 2007Top 5 Ways to Save Money When Buying Orchids
- Buy a plant with more buds and one/some already open, so you know you’ll enjoy the full blooming of the plant without bud blast.
- Don’t buy by price, buy by what you like. More expensive often doesn’t mean better with Orchids.
- Get a plant with strong roots. Loot at the bottom of the pot and see if you can see roots through the holes.
- Make sure you are buying a sturdy plant. If it is loose in the mix don’t buy it.
- If a plant is on sale there is usually a reason. You’ll get a better buy in terms of plant quality and bloom time for your money by choosing a plant that is not on clearance. Those on clearance usually are on their way out.
