Where to buy plants online?
I just recently purchased a few dozen plants from a guy named Marco at
www.aquatic-store.com and had great success! I ordered a few dozen plants over net paying with PayPal. You can order any amount, but since I live in Anchorage, Alaska and had read good things about this site I took a chance and was rewarded greatly. He even through in extra plants (over a dozen) for free. The best part is he doesn't gouge you on shipping and they are from very nice personal aquariums versus large farmed variety at a nursery. Definitely worth looking at his site! I'm very excited to have such unique plants too, my LFS doesn't carry much in the way of unique, or high quality. Good luck!

I am looking for a site that explains the different types of plants and their care requirements. I recently bought some from PetSolutions.com. The plants were beautiful specimens when they arrived. Unfortunately, I made the mistake of ordering in the dead of winter. Despite the fact that the box had "Live plants, do not expose to extreme temperature" type warnings all over it, there was ice all over the plants. A crypt and an anubias were a total loss, though it was two days before the leaves all fell off. Two bunches of dwarf sag were damaged, but appear to be recovering. And an anubias nana survived the ordeal just fine. So, I think PetSolutions is a good source, but that you shouldn't order from them during a season when the shipper can easily kill your plants by leaving them on an unheated dock overnight. |
