If you could only order from one of these plant vendors which one would you choose?

aquariumplants.com

99% of the time they have what i'm looking for, they're great to talk to if you have special requests with shipping etc., plants are large, healthy, snail free. What more can you ask for?

Back in the saddle!

Favorite because I was able to get some plant species I couldn't get elsewhere. Shipping alittle high. I like the service at aquariumplants.com, but the last time I tried to order their variety was extremely limited.

Voted other. My fav site is http://www.aquaticplantdepot.com. There shipping is only $10 and the quality is good. Their prices are also good. They ship from florida so it only takes a couple days to get to my house. Their selection could be better...but they have common plants.

I am ordering from floridadriftwood.com this week because they have plants that the other site doesn't. They have a great selection and I will see how fast their shipping is when I order...so don't know if they are my new fav or not yet.:%)

so far my fav is http://www.aquariumgarden.com/index.php

It takes them a while to ship the plants out, but the shipping is reasonable and everything that I have ordered from them so far has arrived healthy and done pretty well in my tank. They're the ones that sent me the free banana plant due to the holiday delay in shipping my last order (they didn't want my plants lying around in a closed post office.) I couldn't be happier and the banana plant is thriving in my tank!!!

I had mixed results with two of the listed sites.

My best one was with freshwateraquariumplants, although even there I occasionally got unwanted replacements and one or the other really small plant. I had a good experience when calling them. Very friendly folks.

aquabotanic sent me really small plants and one wrong one (but a freebee as well, maybe because they felt guilty).

aquariumplants has since at least 6 months listed that they will expand their assortment “New Arrivals – Coming Soon” and I am still waiting for this to happen. Almost all plants on their New Arrival link are never available.
