Welcome Alfredo to Slipper Talk!

Unfortunately most people who are members here at Slipper Talk are located in the US, or at least live outside of Peru, so it will be a little hard to send you plants via the post. Orchids fall under CITES, which basically means they are considered protected and have the same status as Ivory, so if you want to ship orchids across borders you have to fill out lots of paper work which can be pretty time consuming and costly. I would suggest contacting any local orchid nurseries in Peru, or perhaps there may be some slipper talk members that live in Peru that could sell you cheap plants.

Welcome Alfredo!

Unfortunately I cannot help either but we do have a few members in Peru, or ones who visit your lovely country frequently.
