I had posted a note in one of Dot's threads about Dowery Orchids possibly having a last sales list and then going out of business. Below is posted/quoted from his email... bad news/good news, but good news overall!
Good morning,
I HAVE DECIDED NOT TO POST A NEW LIST FOR FALL 2010. The plants imported this spring have not done well, and those plants remaining from last year do not look good, due to neglect.
I have spent most of this spring and summer dealing with the farm and the unusual amount of work that demands be done.
The Dowery will continue to operate as an orchid nursery and hopefully there will be a new list next spring.
I will retain your e-mail addresses (never selling them). When I have gathered sufficient numbers of quality species plants I will contact you again.
I have greatly appreciated your support in the past and think the future will look good. Let us hope for a mild an short winter.
Best regards, Dwayne
