I finally got an email from Hildegard crous who I asked about the disas she sold. And once again asked about bartholina. She replied the following:
She can post you mature plants (flowering size) in pots, up to 6 in a box.
Otherwise she can send plugs, at R120/plug. (see pic) These will only start flowering next season, a plug consists of 2-3, sometimes more depending on variety, plantlets in sphagnum moss.
She has not yet managed to successfully germinate bartholina's in in vitro yet - they had sown fresh seed on a new medium, and i hoping it will do the trick, so that we can have some.
At the moment she has the following available

as mature plants:

Disa tripetaloides
Disa tripetaloides early form
Disa Cardior
Disa Trikew
Disa Langleyensis
Disa Unimeyer

And plugs:
Disa aurata
Disa cardinalis
Disa Cardior
Disa Langleyensis
Disa Veitchii

Question? What does the D. Cardior, D. Langleyensis, D. Unimeyer look like, possible parentage?

The parent are as follows:
D. Cardior = cardinalis x (uniflora x (racemosa x uniflora)
D. Langleyensis = racemosa x tripetaloides
D. Unimeyer = uniflora x (uniflora x cardinalis) x uniflora)

The colour will probably depend on which parents were used. At a guess: Cardior will be mid sized with several flowers/stem, presumably red; Langleyensis will be small and pink with a lot of flowers/stem. Unimeyer: large, uniflora-like flowers, colour depends on the uniflora parents - there's a lot of different coloured Unimeyers around. Your best bet would be to ask the vendor what they're expecting from the crosses.
