Default Crystal Company of Saint Louis


It used to be that the Crystal Company of Saint Louis was THE place to
buy compressed bales of coconut husk chips. They used to advertise in
Orchids Magazine.

Are they still around? Do they have a web site?

The last time I ordered, I purchased from Roberts Flower Supply. I'll
probably just do that again but I would like to compare prices first, if
possible.

Thanks Ray. I'll continue to look for them unless someone here has a
better lead on how to contact them.
By the way, Ray, you sold me my first bag of CHC. Obviously, I liked it
but I needed it in bigger quantities.

I found them and sent an e-mail inquiry. Their web site doesn't offer
much information on prices or ordering.

Also carries it but my bookmark is on my other computer that caught
a virus and died even with updated nortons running.
I don't know if they ship as I just drop by and get it myself.
