Wooo I ordered my plants! I grow in two old aquariums so my space is very limited, but I could not resist adding two TCs in anyway. I got:

Haraella retrocalla (of course)
BULBOPHYLLUM frostii mounted (I like creepy flowers)
BULBOPHYLLUM triste (pretty!)

I have not purchased any plants in months, so I am very excited!

Great choices! I'm a big Bulbo fan. Almost got the frostii myself. But, the stinko factor made me decide not to.

Go ahead, Yvan - I have frostii, and like most (but definitely not all) Bulbos you can't really smell it unless you stick your nose right into the flower.

Oh, I probably will get it at some point. I just used that as a way to help myself cut back on the number of TCs for this order.

I've always wanted a bulbo frostii, stop giving me more idea's.

Have learned that Paramount only carry Haraella odorata, they don't have retrocalla. Now I'm going to try J & L because they're coming to Vancouver in May.

Shirley, odorata and retrocalla are the same thing. The plant was renamed. Your safe to order from Paramount if you want to.

[shadytrake]

I ordered...here's my list.

Haraella retrocalla - the star.

TCs
Epidendrum pseudepidendrum
TOLUMNIA bahamense mounted

I started with 8 wants, but I had to keep the total under $50 so my checkbook would not suffer.



One TC on each side to hug my project.

I believe the H. Odorata IS retrocalla, given that Paramount has retrocalla in brackets right under odorata....

either way, they won't ship until at least May because Calgary got a snow dump last week.
