I have rarely been disappointed in their specimens. They ship quickly (although I do live in Hawaii) and only once did I have to contact them in which case they were courteous and fixed the problem immediately. If you want plants in bloom or not ,you should check the part of the web called Plants in Bloom before ordering them, you'll get them one way or the other. I have found from my own orchids that, while they may seem to have a specific bloom period, they have a mind of their own and will bloom according to your environmental conditions. One thing you should know about this nursery is that some things are grown there while others offered for sale are brought in from neighboring nurseries. Either way I am happy with their products and will continue to order from them. |

I do nothing special to them, just water twice a week and keep out of direct sunlight. They have looked absolutely beautiful for months and the blooms are magnificent. I am a true novice when it comes to orchids. But I do know beautiful and these are definitely beautiful! I am more than happy with Aloha and would recommend them highly. |

I also have ordered orchids for my office (twenty phals in bloom and perfect) and I have placed several orders throughout this past year. |

I know there are several other websites with names SIMILAR to the above.. I just wonder if those of you who've ordered and had bad experiences have ordered from a similarly named website and confused it with this one. |

Positive | DiamondD (9 reviews) | On Jan 19, 2007, DiamondD Baton Rouge, LA (Zone 8b) wrote: I just received my 5 new babies. Babies, oh no, they way exceeded my expectations! I had read the reviews and admit that I was somewhat concerned, but am I glad I decided to give them a shot. I did phone them because there was a concern of the arrival time [my being in town for the shipment] and they sent me the tracking information when they shipped. I had put in the comments about the shipping issue but wanted to call to confirm. They couldn't have been nicer. Am I placing another order? You bet cha. |
Positive | aldaflower (1 review) | On Dec 14, 2006, aldaflower Freedom, ME wrote: I do wedding flowers in Maine and have purchased from Aloha Orchids often, with unfailing success. Last Summer their white, Mauna Kea Snow phalenopsis, ordered with many spikes, produced a stunningly beautiful, Bridal bouquet. The amazingly elegant flowers of this very large phalenopsis appeared to gently flap their floral wings in space with every step that the bride took as she walked through a slight, foggy drizzle to the distant ceremonial site. The vision was most memorable. |
Positive | dichotomy (4 reviews) | On Oct 27, 2006, dichotomy Wilmington, DE wrote: I too am quite surprised to read the negative reviews. I have ordered from them six times since May 2006. Each time the plants arrived in perfect condition, very well packed, and completely free of insects and disease. |
Positive | ilexopaca (4 reviews) | On Sep 27, 2006, ilexopaca Sugar Grove, IL (Zone 5a) wrote: Are these people ordering from the same company I am? I have ordered orchids from them many times. I have never received any plants of poor quality. I have always received large, healthy plants with bloom spikes even though I didn't pay the extra for a plant in bloom. I have always received timely e-mails from them and their delivery time and response have always been very quick. Good company to do business with. In fact I just placed another order today! |

Positive | xineann (11 reviews) | On Jun 9, 2006, xineann Beaverton, OR wrote: I am stunned to see the bad reviews of this company. I bought gift collections for my daughter, son-in-law, and French teacher from Aloha. They were oncidiums, dendrobiums, and cattleyas, respectively. They were delighted. My daughter knows orchids better than I so I deferred to her judgment and orders several dendrobiums. A few had the roots circling the pot and I'll repot when they're done blooming, if that ever happens. But several are sending out new spikes and I've seen no sign of mealy bugs. If I have to fault them for anything, it's that they didn't return my phone calls when I was stressing about delivery dates. But they made sure the gifts arrived on time, and I was charged correctly for them. |

Positive | andreay111 (2 reviews) | On Jan 7, 2006, andreay111 Fort Lauderdale, FL (Zone 10a) wrote: I ordered five orchids from Aloha Orchid in September. One orchid arrived in spike. They were packed very well. One orchid (Dendrobrium Superbum) had very few leaves so I e-mailed the company. They immediately responded by telling me that this particular orchid normally loses its leaves. The prices were excellent and the plants were very large. One is in bloom now and another is about to bloom. I will definitely order from them again. It was a great experience overall! |

Positive | Surrealle (1 review) | On Apr 14, 2005, Surrealle O Brien, FL wrote: I ordered three orchids last week for my mother, and they arrived today in wonderful condition. They are very healthy looking, either blooming or with multiple buds, and are bigger than expected! We are both thrilled with Aloha's orchids, careful shipping, and very reasonable prices. Definitely recommended! |
