I'm really happy with the plants I recieved(thanks aurorawa!)..all are growing except Khao soi dao,which I had to take cuttings because or a compromised root system.Cuttings are taking root so that's a good thing. My 10 other plants are all showing new growth. It has been a little over a month since I planted them up.Has any other people on here have good results with this vender?I know Doug is very happy with his order.Share your experiences and pics! Here are a few of mine !

I split an order with aurorawa and paid my portion directly to her via paypal. She sent me the plants when they arrived. 6 days total! They did have roots and there was quite a bit of coco husks left on the roots,so i just repotted everything into my own mix.I didn't want to damage the roots any more then they were from the trip.

Wow Jimmy! They are all beautiful and unique. Makes me want more! (but I'm sticking with what I have) but if you place another order please let me know. There are some Carnosa and Pubicalyx varieties I don't have.

Thanks...I think I'm done with buying more hoyas this year...lol. I have always ordered in May or June. Im not sure it they can take the NY summer heat if there is a hold up in customs. I did order once from Jack in September years ago and they got here in pretty good shape!

I am in the middle of placing an order with them. We've had some miscommunication problems because of language barrier, but my list of what I want is finally in with them, and I am waiting for a confirmation that everything is in stock, and maybe for pictures, and for the amount to pay.

I saw they removed Paypal as a payment option, then they added it back in when I checked today - I do not know what's going on with that. Jimmy, did you pay by Paypal, or by Transferwise? I've never used Transferwise before.

And did your plants come rooted or as unrooted cuttings?

> 6 days total!

You mean transportation from Thailand to Aurora, and THEN from her to you, ALL TOGETHER, took 6 days? Wow, that is exceptionally fast. 4+2 days, I am assuming. That was EMS express shipping, Aurora? And did you pay to AH Hoya by Paypal, or by Transferwise?

My order is an individual one, because I easily found 12 plants I want, but I guess once I reshuffle my collection a bit and grow most of what I want to grow, I won't need to get 12 plants the next time around, so a group order may be in my future, to make that shipping more economical per plant. And I will probably make a good hub for that future order because I am only 13 miles from the JFK airport where I assume all these shipments come in, if directed to the East Coast of the US.

I can't wait to get my babies. This is going to be a first for me from Thailand, or from anywhere overseas for that matter.
