This forum had an active group of participants who traded regularly. I used to send 2 to 3 parcels off every Monday and receive in kind a few days later. Just go to the exchange section and bring up pages from 3 to 5 years ago to see the level of activity. There seems to be no interest in this any more, the exchange page is totally inactive.

There are other groups on the internet which have very active trading sections. I have gone to three of them as a matter of fact and scored some very nice trades. I don't know why the interest faded with this group, it has to be the cheapest way to get nice plants.

Lets get a nice little trading group started up! Come on guys! Me and nick just made an amazing trade and i got six species divisions for only the cost of shipping! If i had bought these from a vendor they would have cost up to $100+ plus shipping! It is a really great way to make friends and lots of fun!

BUMMMMPPPP!

I only have about 8 orchids, but I would love to buy some divisions or something, then I can trade! I had about 100 before I left for Iraq last year, and now I'm just rebuilding my orchid collection which I got rid of before I left. I'll certainly pay for postage!

i would love to trade but i only have 2 orchids how do i go about trading and buying orchids on here

I have tried orchids in the past and the phals were horrible since they kept dying on me, but I did have a Cymbidium before and it was great until my cat knocked it over outside, it got mowed over but some lawn care service I pay to mow my lawn and I was out of town. Couldn't find a backbulb or a Cymbidium. But I like to have one but no orchids here. :( Can i get a free one somehow? I do have some things to trade.

Ben, do you still have the Schom tibicinis? Have othe Schombo's to trade.
