Seeking Orchid Nursery in Korat
« on: January 15, 2012, 08:33:00 AM »
Hi folks,
I'm looking for nursuries with a decent selection of orchids in and around Korat.

Any info and help would be great appreciated.
Thanks.

If you can wait until the end of March, on Suranaree Fair the whole inner city around Yamo will be full of them.

Sometimes in Summer there are special festivals called "Orchid Jazz" and "The orchid at Nakhon Ratchasima" where you'll find even more.

Please have a look at these threads as well

Kok Kruat is the best and there's a smaller market at the junction of the 304 and no.2 entrance to SUT. We buy ours from a couple of small outlets in Pak Thong Chai. One of those is right next to Top Cafe - the man propagates them himself and has some nice hangers.

Saf, that's the one near the cement factory, yes?  I've bought several plants from that place too.  I've found another small nursery on the back road behind PB restaurant and near where a misanthrope lives.

I don't know the cement factory but KK is after the TOT office on Highway 2.
