| I've always ordered from Kellys because I like their sphag and they have great bark. I need to order some supplies now and have tried to compare shipping charges from a few companies. Too complicated as they use different measurements for bark. They do not give the shipping charges until you check out.
Any suggestions? Jane |

| Have you tried eBay for the brands you like? I buy my sphag and bark from various sellers there. I have been buying my charcoal from Oak Hill (and of course have to add a plant or two to the box when I order, lol). I took a fast glance at eBay and they have the brand of bark I like, 2 cu.ft (about the size of a big bag of dog food, along with shipping for about $50 total. That lasts me for a couple years unless I go on a repotting frenzy. I believe the seller has different sizes; I like the small bark. Just an example. Good luck. |

| Hi I have over the years converted most of my epi orchids to crushed lava rock. You can get 2cf for around 6 bucks. You can get several sizes at the "Bushel stop" nurseries here in Fl. I use the black around 1/2 inch in diameter . Another advantage is that it doesn't break down . Have several going on 10 years!! gary |
