🌸 [October] General Preorder 26 (Preparing Import)
🤝 Curated by OrchidMart📦 Fulfilled by OrchidMart✨ Current status: Preparing Import
🛒 Preorder Sale: Oct 1–30, 2026 (closed)📦 Expected Arrival: Late Nov to Early Dec📍 Place of Import: Taiwan
❄️ WINTER SHIPPING PROTECTION IS MANDATORY FOR THIS PREORDER. We ship year-round and have years of experience packing plants safely through Canadian winters. Plants arrive in late November to early December, so every shipped order must include Winter Shipping Protection — orders without it will be cancelled. With it, we guarantee live arrival or a full refund. If your order has many items or needs extra warmth, please consider adding an extra Heat Pack (72 Hours) as well.
This preorder brings together plants from several specialist orchid nurseries in Taiwan. We pick the varieties we like from each grower and bring them in together as one shipment. This round features Phalaenopsis, Dendrobium and Paphiopedilum.
Orders are collected first, then imported as one shipment. OrchidMart handles the entire import into Canada — sourcing, customs, phytosanitary permits and freight — and provides local customer service, including order tracking, arrival updates, pickup or delivery coordination, and after-arrival support. You order in Canadian dollars from a Canadian shop; we deal with the overseas side.
This preorder closed on Oct 30 and we are now preparing the import. Confirmed orders in this batch keep our group order discount of 25% off and are covered by our live arrival guarantee. The free-cancellation window closed with the order on Oct 30.
This preorder is now closed, so we can no longer add items to it. If there's something you'd like us to look for in a future import, browse the full Phalaenopsis selection list below, then just drop us a line with the name — product code is fine — and we'll keep it on our list for the next batch.
⚠️ PREORDER ITEMS ARE NOT IN STOCK. Preorder items have their own processing and shipping timeline, entirely separate from in-stock items. For estimated arrival dates, always check our Preorder Status Tracking.
📌 New to preordering? Please read About Our Preorder and, if you are a first-time buyer or beginner, read our Instructions before placing an order.
⚠️ We recommend not mixing preorder items with in-stock items, as preorders generally take longer to process. During this time, in-stock items may no longer be in their originally described condition. If you choose to place a mixed-item order, we will hold the shipment and dispatch everything only after the last item has arrived.
📦 Combined shipment: If you need to add items to an existing order (up to 3 items), please contact us with your order number and we will adjust it manually. For more than 3 items, please place a new order with shipping — we will combine all available items and refund any shipping overage.
It's unfortunate the other reviewer didn't have luck with his utricularia order. Perhaps it was mostly a case of mistaken expectations as the plants were sold/described as as bare root "as-is" grade C, (recommended for experienced growers). I have received many utricularia from various Orchidmart pre-orders and they are all doing great including U. Praelonga. Admittedly some pots were rougher than others but none were dead or past salvaging. I will continue to purchase carnivorous plants from Orchidmart as the variety and prices can't be beat.
I was worried about the shipment in cold winter, but plants arrive safely with nursery pot, heated pad , good packaging. Healthy plants, can’t wait to see the new roots after settle in
