Though prior reviews here were rather old, they all seemed very positive, so I went ahead and ordered: clear plastic pots in two sizes, and a Miltonia in-spike that I couldn't resist. |
Positive | Corgi_Lily (3 reviews) | On May 4, 2007, Corgi_Lily Lowell, MI wrote: I ordered 5 B-sized and one Near-bloom sized orchid. All came as promoted; a spot here, a small tear there on the leaf. Nothing to be concerned about, and the small imperfections saved me some money. The shipment was well packed, the plants looked happy on arrival; they were sent in pots so no frantic potting in the evening after work was necessary on my part. All root systems look healthy. Two had small spikes. No extra plants were sent with my shipment as others seemed to have gotten. As someone who has had three orchids for 5 years and was looking to expand my collection a bit - but not willing to buy large expensive plants from the local nursery, I think this is a great way to expand a small collection with interesting named varieties. I will deal with Chesterfield again. |

Plus they don't look like B-grade orchids: nice healthy leaves, potted up in styrofoam and moss inside plastic pots. The 4 are different varieties too, some hybrids. |
Positive | kbaumle (11 reviews) | On Feb 2, 2006, kbaumle Northwest, OH (Zone 5b) wrote: Upon recommendation from another DGer, I ordered four orchids. It was my first time for ordering orchids by mail, and I was worried that they would arrive damaged, since it seems orchids can be somewhat fragile. I needn't have worried. Each was packed carefully in moss and styrofoam peanuts inside the plastic pot, with each plant individually wrapped in its own little sleeve, then carefully packed with oodles of styrofoam peanuts. A heat pack was included, and when they arrived here three days after shipment (NJ to Ohio by priority mail), the heat pack was still warm. |

Shipped quickly and package insured, with growing information provided. Will order from again! On October 29th, 2003, Missyinbama added the following: Another great shipment of orchids- Maybe the company should change to "Chesterfield Orchids!" I am definitely a repeat customer. |
