Default orchid growing: question

Last night we had a talk on @indoor gardening'. Not my cup of tea but
still some members enjoyed it.
Anyway question was asked about growing orchids and Nursery manager from
"biggest Plant centre in country (in Ware)" advised that you grow
orchids in clear flower pots as their roots need to see the light.
Members pointed out that her orchid was still flowering after 24 months
but was in ordinary pot but that was pooh poohed as good luck.

Question:
Where do you get the clear flower pots from? They might have drainage
holes for the orchid but apart from that I haven't seen them so can't
supply any more details.

Googling got me Stewart plastic pots and clear saucers to go under pots
(drip trays) but no actual pots.

Any ideas?
