Re: Orchids Question

It depends on what kind of orchids you want. There are so many varieties. Some are only $3-$3 a stem but have 15 flowers on them. Others are $15 a stem

Would you be able to tell me which in particular are more/less expensive please??

Re: Orchids Question

I know Cattleya orchids ( in my bouquet) are $15 a stem (and they are gorgeous). Whatever the orchids were that I wore in my hair were $5 a stem. Other than that, I would ask a florist.

Re: Orchids Question

My centerpieces were all dendrobium orchids, which aren't that expensive (I don't know exactly how much), but the problem is that they need tons of the stems to make them look full. My florist put some hydrangea in the center of the centerpiece to fill it out a bit and you couldn't see it, so I was OK with it. My bo-k was made from cymbidium orchids (I think) and they were much more expensive.
