The Orchid Garden

Cheap Kuan-Yin-SuShin

Question:

I’ve always loved Kuan Yin Sushin… its color and the fragrance. While I was in Asia, it was very common and cheap. I found one site in US that sells it, but it was expansive + more expansive S&H. Does anyone know any place I can buy this cheap?  I live in Chicago, so if there is a local place, I can even drive down there.  Thanks!

I also live in Chicago.  I can think of three possibilities (forgive me if you already know of these). Orchids by Hausermann (630) 543-6855 I go to their Open House every year, so my buying tends to be only on this annual basis (in February).  I like them, they’re helpful. EFG Orchids (630) 543-5628 I still haven’t gone there yet, so i can’t say much about it.  Just call them up and ask. Chicago Botanical Gardens Won’t have orchids for sale, but they do host at least one orchid society, and i’m sure you can find out more through them.  Go to the information desk and ask for the meeting schedules (they should have something for all the groups that meet there, and you can find the orchid group’s schedule through that).  Plus, its a good time of year to go up to the Gardens anyway (take the 41 route on the Edens expressway, DO NOT branch off when the Edens branches off, and the next exit (Lake Cook Road) should be for the Chicago Botanical Gardens.  Admission is free, parking costs a few bucks.  Or you can ride your bike up there – there’s a fairly good bike path (at least for someone who lives on the North Side).         -john February 28 1997: Last day libraries could order catalogue cards from the Library of Congress.
