Auction list- help needed
 

The next Tucson Orchid Society Meeting will be having its annual auction. I have a list of the donated plants and was wondering if anyone could help me get a good idea what would be a good plant to try to win. Please keep in mind that i grow indoors and have limited space. My humidity is about 60% and it's usually about 77 degrees. Any and ALL help is appreciated. I would usually look everything up myself, but I have two projects due this week... but I need orchids!!!!! at least one...

Thanks in advance,

Abster

P.S>- There are names associated with the plants- please disregard.

WOW!!!!! That is quite a list and a great selection of genera. Where to start???? What to recommend depends on your personal choice in plants, and there are so many of each type to choose from. No matter what you decide to bid on, I wish you luck.

For myself, I would start with Vandofinetia Blaupunkt Neofinetia falcata x Vanda coerulescens. That has been on the top of my wish list. Beyond that I could go broke. I wish I could join you.

I was looking at that!!!!! I think I may have chosen the one i will fight for lol. I love vandaceous plants and phals. Paphs are good, too.

Encyclia polybulbon is a real cutie, if you can provide high light. It's a mini so space won't be an issue :)
