    Amazing, great market to share.
    Every time my wife visits the orchid farm in Florida it is a least $250 for 4 or so plants (not the WalMart type).
    That was a unbelievable price, and they will need very little special care when in Thailand.
    I think after watching your video I would have to bring a trailer and pack a lunch.
    Looking forward to more nice videos.

    Those thick solid wood tables out of tree trunks certainly will outlast the IKEA ones.

    I work at Home Depot, orchard sells normally for $15 each, but the real sad part of it is, they throw away the orchard once the flowers die!!! Ridiculous....

      I had never bought an orchid in the states. Thanks for the info.

    You’re driving a Toyota CHR 👍🏼 Hybrid model? Good car. Nice video

    • @AlmostRetiredinThailand
      @AlmostRetiredinThailand  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yes, Toyota ChR hybrid. We did want the Cross hybrid initially, but in Koh Samui where we bought they didn't have one, so this is what we got.

    Pet-kaaa- sem , my Thai wife’s pronunciation so I think you have it right.
    You may have passed a drug checkpoint. They do urinalysis on young men and will arrest them on the spot.
    Thanks for posting this video
