Default Tall Pots?

Joe,

They have some nice looking pots but it looks like they are all glazed. That
is generally a no no with orchids because they don't dry out fast enough.
Maybe you can order some that way from them. You should check also to see if
they have drainage holes in them.

This is my concern too. Cactus gardens and Bulb pans can be made to
hold water to use in displays in the house. Bulbs are often forced in
glazed or glass containers. The bulb pans and azalea pots suggested
were raw pottery such as you might find in Mexican pottey or a
nursery's stock.
