Re: Growing orchids
You can buy the flasks in Indonesia too - there is a lot of work in 'deflasking' orchids but definitely the economical way to do it. Unfortunately each plant is indeed a 'clone' so you end up with dozens of the same flower.

Re: Growing orchids
seems like someone who lived in siem reap could do quite a good plant rental biz on a very low cap startup.
take them to hotels in full flower and replace when needed.
lots of tourists buy orchids to take home.
i am sure phytosanitary certificates for export could be obtained with a little research.
esp for teh clones.

Re: Growing orchids
a facebook page on orchids: https://www.facebook.com/groups/orchidfriends/
like gems, orchids are ubiquitous and a very narrow niche.
for sure there would be a big rental market for the 5 star hotels with the flowering plants.
this is a very appealing business i think.
