View Full Version : Where do you buy plants?
Where do you all buy your plants from? Our local pet stores don't have any nice plants. Been looking on the web and trying to find the best place. Thanks!

Try out http://www.aquabotanicstore.com/ and see if they have what you are looking for. I plan to order from them soon, because i am having difficulty finding places near and online but i have heard that aquabotanic is a good place to try; had everything i wanted.

I've gotten most of mine from trades on AC.

I do if you request it, but last I heard in New York city it was pretty mild, almost warm! The only time you need a heat pack is if its below freezing. Anything above freezing is fine. Cold actually helps preserve plants during shipping. Thats why plants and cut flowers are stored in the fridge.
There are over a dozen professinal businesses in the USA online selling aquatic plants, and only one has been doing it longer than me, but you guys other than David can't come up with any business to recommend even when someone asks for it? Common! Get out of the house more often! :silly:
