Fortunately, I am close enough to Lauray's that I can go there in person. The selection is always wonderful,,,,what dealer do you know of that has extensive collections of orchids, cacti, succulents, gesneriads and begonias!! I find the prices to be very generous and the plants well grown. Since Judy doesn't spray, I occasionally find a bug or two, but I generally quarantine new arrivals anyway so this is not a major problem.

Judy is a genius in every sense of the word, and how sad that her parents, Ray and Laura, are now gone as they were quality people. I urge everyone in the area to check this nursery out, you won't be disappointed!

I have ordered many times and have always found the plants
to be extrodinary as compaired to others I have purchased from. Plants are always larger then most and a lot of care goes into what is sent. I will continue to purchase from her for my plants. Her web site is also good..

I placed an order with Lauray a couple years ago, sorry it's took so long to get here to post. Communication was very good between us, especially nice since she didn't ship for quite some time, but I knew that from the beginning. She sent small cuttings, I was dissapointed at first, but she assured me after me emailing her about them that they ship better when smaller and they would root. Well, they did, and they have now blossomed into beautiful begonias, i've taken cuttings off them and made larger plants . Am well pleased with this company. I wish the web site had pictures to go along besides the begonias though, only downfall......

I love visiting Lauray of Salisbury! I am 19 and in college, and my boyfriend and I have an orchid fetish. We sometimes take the 30 minute drive out to Salisbury just to look at her wonderful orchid collection. She is always willing to answer all of our questions and obviously knows what she is talking about. We've learned a lot from her, and I am really looking forward to seeing her later this week for my next purchase: a paphiopedilum!

I've ordered from her for yrs and have always had good service. I've heard that she may retire in a few yrs and it'll be a sad time for Begonia and GEsneriad enthousiasts, since she has one of the largest collections of both available to the public...

Super Nursery. I have visited the laurays and have had Judy Becker as a speaker at our begonia club. I love the available begonias but they carry many unusual plants such as succulents and hoyas. Way to go Judy!

Lauray of Salisbury has one of the most extensive selections around when it comes to gesneriads, begonias, orchids, and cacti & succulents. The catalog is detailed and informative. I have only received one order by mail but the plants (begonias) were packed so carefully that they looked like they had just been picked up from the greenhouse bench. I visited the greenhouses many years ago, and was impressed that such a small operation could grow so many plants, and so well. On top of all that, the owner is one of the nicest people you'll ever meet.

I'm mostly an indoor gardener (houseplants.) Lauray's of Salisbury is wonderful. Judy Becker, who runs it, is knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. I purchased 4 cane begonia starts from her, and they all arrived in great shape, packed carefully with LOTs of TLC ! I was very impressed, and would order again without a moment's hesitation.
