orchid type plastic pots in Brisbane

Post by NathanM »

Hi guys. I quite urgently need some of those 200mm squat orchid type pots. I was going to pick a few up at the club meeting today, but there weren't any there. Does anybody know where I can get some tomorrow? Want to get my comp trees into some asap :)
Last time I checked Bunnings they didn't ave them :/
Thanks :D

Hi Nathan
I buy pots from a guy on eBay - tranquil_garden. I believe he also sells at the Chandler markets if you don't mind a drive.

Hi

Here are a couple of images that I just took. The images are not great.


They are my first orchids that I have purchased so should be something different to grow.
I have to get around to repotting them as they have out grown the pot.

they has so many different types but most did not have flowers at the moment.
