I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)

Are you serious! I thought I would get turned down! Woohoo! We could just select one off the last project 4 or previous project lists, unless Dorothy can whip up her list super fast!

and I thought YOU were kidding!
If we get some folks agreeing to this in the next few days, I'll figure out what needs to be done.

Seriously, what's the time-frame for the latest a 'chid can be shipped to the folks in our colder areas?

If it's done quickly I think I can participate. (Maine) So far the weather is holding. I'll know tomorrow as my planned last order should arrive and last night it was 41 F.

From the original list in Project 1...and still available at Andy's:

Lepanthes elegantula

Epidendrum conopseum

Gastrochilus calceolaris

****************************************

Runners-up from Project 2:

LEPTOTES unicolor

KEFERSTEINIA tolimensis

MAXILLARIA sophronitis

******************************************

Runners-up from Project 3:

Phal lindenii

Laelia perrinii

Laelia tenebrosa

*****************************************

Runners-up from Project 4:

Masdevallia infracta

Leptotes bicolor

Cattleya intermedia / Brassavola nodosa

******************************************

IF we're gonna do this, my suggestion is to use the above plants as a list to choose from as it'll have to be quick and these have already been through the system

...and they can be ordered from any vendor of your choosing.

Let me know if a poll should be posted. I think we should skip the idea unless we have at least 5 people interested.
