We were asked via email this morning how much it would cost for 50 stems of orchids. A mother wanted to make Orchid Leis for a graduation party. (Which we think is a great idea!)
The thing is with Orchids, they are expensive here in our part of the country. Not so expensive in California and Hawaii as they are so profuse there.
Regular retail of a single stem of a Dendrobium Orchid is around $7 per stem. Wholesale rates can get the rate to go down a couple dollars or so, depending on how many one orders. The more you order, the more the price per stem goes down.
It all comes down to what your budget is for the project and how many leis you'd want to make.
Wholesale is a great way to get a lot of flowers. Though it isn't for everyone. At our Flower Shoppe, we require a minimum order of $150 of wholesale merchandise to even get the wholesale rate.
Hopefully this isn't too confusing. Pricing on wholesale items fluctuates too from week to week. The reason for this is that we buy direct from the grower and things like the weather and demand that week for their flowers will drive the price up or down.
