Well, I've made a request to the Italian growers - just have to wait and see what they charge for Pand p, and if it is actually available - you place the request and then they get back to you. How do you grow these? I onlyjust got a vanda so this is going to be fun????? :lol:

According to Andy's they like Very bright indirect light and like to be water 3 to 4 times a week. Let dry between watering.

Hope this doesn't come across the wrong way, but I just searched a few places for purchasing this 'chid and I am wondering who is selling it for $25.00 or less? Can anyone help?

Ooops, just checked Orchids Limited and saw they have it available for $25.00....Andy's has it for $45.00! Other places I have found range from 29.00 and up! Oak Hill Garden does have it for $15.00 but it is not labeled as blooming sized. They need to be blooming sized, is that correct? I wonder if the one Orchids Limited has for $25.00 is blooming sized? So many questions!

I'm having the same trouble as Becca in finding a grower that has BS at under $25. I found it at Hausermanns for $22.50 BS but their Laelia is $35 there and may be 1. a hybrid version and 2. not BS... trying to get both if I can... May end up backing out of one or the other if I can't find a viable source for both at BS.

I got this and the anceps at Hausermann, I got the Den. from Oah Hill because they are going to be in the north east I won't have to pay shipping.

Ok our European participants are having trouble finding this plant at the right price and size as well. So what do you all think about getting a different variety of Rhynchostylis like the RHYNCHOSTYLIS retusa v. gigantea Oak hill has this for 15.00 BS. Same growing conditions as the first one.

I'm for it if others are, especially if it makes things easier for the rest of the group!
