Q: How many Dendrobium varieties does BB Orchids offer?

A: BB Orchids currently offers over 340 Dendrobium varieties, including 142 blooming-size options and 202 seedling varieties. Our catalog is regularly updated with new proprietary hybrids developed in our tissue culture lab.

Q: What is the best way to export Dendrobium orchids from Thailand?

A: The standard Thai export process for Dendrobium orchid shipments involves four key steps:

1. Phytosanitary certificate issued by the Thai Department of Agriculture
2. Export permit and documentation
3. Bare root preparation and air freight shipping
4. Customs paperwork coordinated with the buyer's import requirements

BB Orchids handles steps 1–3 in full and supports buyers with step 4. Clients provide their consignee and import permit details.

Q: How are Dendrobium orchids packed for shipping?

A: Seedlings are shipped bare root in cartons holding approximately 800–1,000 plants. Blooming and flowering-size plants ship in larger cartons, fitting around 100 potted plants or 180–200 bare-root mature plants. All packaging is designed to protect roots and foliage during air freight transit.

Q: Can I order both seedlings and flowering plants?

A: Yes. BB Orchids supplies Dendrobium plants at every growth stage - flask plantlets, seedlings, blooming size, and flowering size. You can mix different stages and varieties within a single order. Contact us to discuss your specific needs and receive a quote.

Q: How long do Dendrobium orchid flowers last?

A: Individual Dendrobium flowers typically last six to eight weeks. With proper care, mature plants can produce multiple flower sprays and bloom several times per year, making them a high-value product for retail and floral businesses.

Q: What is the difference between seedlings and blooming-size Dendrobium plants?

A: Seedlings are young plants grown in 1-inch pots, typically 5–10 cm tall, and require additional growing time before they flower. Blooming-size plants are mature orchids in 3.5-inch pots that are ready to produce flowers when environmental conditions are right. Seedlings are the more cost-effective option for nurseries growing plants, while blooming-size plants suit buyers who need retail-ready or event-ready stock.
