Spring 2015 plant project: FINAL VOTE! (PARTICIPANTS ONLY)

[camille1585]

It’s time for the final poll !!! (unless we get a tie in this poll…)

We used the results of the first poll to check availability of the different plants, in order of preference. Unfortunately some plants which got a lot of votes (C. aclandiae, Oeoniella polystachys, Hadrolaelias..) did not make it to the final poll because there were difficulties finding enough of them available, and within our price range. So we kept moving down the list until we had 5 good choices.


But you still have these plants from which to vote for your favorite!

Here are the growers in the US where we have confirmed availability. They may be available at other vendors that we didn’t know of while doing the poll, so you can buy from where ever you prefer and can find it. I then listed growers for EU, Canada and Australia, but didn’t confirm for any of them since there are so few participants in each area.
