Chinese Orchids & Plants from Hengduan Biotech
Dear Friends and Customers,
In the attached files please find our price lists for orchids and ornamentals for our fall 2024 USA delivery. We are planning to ship at the end of Oct. 2024 from China to the USA. After the plants get clearance and released, they are shipped on to California. They would be picked up in San Francisco and repackages the individual orders and sends them out. This takes up to an additional week. If you live near San Francisco, you can make separate arrangements with Mary to pick up your plants (if desired).
We strongly recommend deflasking your orchids upon receipt as they usually get quite jumbled in shipping, and sometimes the integrity of the sterile seal is also compromised.
Upon receipt in the USA and distribution to our customers, we are highly recommending more expensive, but reliable shipping services such as the USPS priority express (1-2 day service), UPS, or Fedex.
This means that the Handling & Shipping costs would be more expensive, but given the time, money and effort in getting these orchids and other plants to the USA, it is well worth the expense. Once we have the costs of the USPS priority express shipping, which can only occur when we actually take the items to the post office (due to differences in package sizes and weights), we will add any additional costs to your invoice and ask that you pay the extra costs either by an additional check or paypal payment (information below). If you already have a UPS or FEDEX account that we can use to send your package(s) that will make things much easier. Please provide that account information when you place your order.
Below we summarize the information necessary to place an order.
