So, I've placed my order :cheer:

I got the Maxillaria tenuifolia & the Gastrochilus japonicus.

I was really tempted by the Paphiopedilum delenatii as well but decided to be restrained this time. It's jumped right to the top of the wish-list though and I'm sure to get one another time.

Cool idea.

Both of these are so different to what I would have bought on my own. Really hopeing I can grow them now, but it will be fun finding out!

Kawamoto said that they have small plants, not blooming size.

As for Los Osos, they will give us a 2 dollar discount on the Max, and I am negotiating a discount for shipping as well. I will post when I get a reply.

:cheer: did you end up ordering from Kawamoto, Rosie?

:D nice! Will that apply to our order as well?

:cloud9: I'm excited for my room to smell like a tiki bar....

yay!

mary, did you notice the only max they have on their website has their cultivar name on it ' los osos ' i didnt notice that on ebay

:rofl:
:rofl: me too Rosie + Encyclia tapanese alba & had to have another equestris "blue lip".....
I'm now waiting for a confirmation e mail as to cost incl shipping...
Merci beaucoup Camille for telling us that Nardotto had updated their list today!

I did not notice that, but I will mention that as well. Make sure it is true, and not a hybrid that they bred. Thank you for bringing that to my attention! :bowing

I'm in the UK so no, far too much complication/expensive ordering from the USA :coverlaugh:

I ordered from Großräschener in Germany. I bought the last Spring project and last year's Summer project plants from them as well.

so mary, what should we tell los osos to get the discount? do we just say we are from orchid board?

I would send them a message to tell them, I'm still working out the details, and trying to get the shipping down as well.
