Plants may still be suggested...INTERMEDIATE and NOT LARGE...please
As a guideline for temps, we are using Jay Phahl's site ( Internet Orchid Species Photo Encyclopedia )
If you see a plant you like, look at the information listed under the plant. If it says the plant is okay from cool-warm or hot-cold or intermediate, it might be a viable candidate for the project.
IF it says it prefers one temperature over another, it can not be part of the project.

if you have any questions, let me know:
cb977@orchidboard.com

Let's be careful with our future suggestions...nothing that is hot-warm or cold-cool will be entered.
Thanks

*Adding sizes below each plant, information from Orchidwiz.
Using the word "spike" just for convenience...should be "inflorescence"

Anything 12" tall or over is being moved to the bottom list, the others that are questionable will be discussed.



*Availability is listed below each plant, written in green.
