Spring 2012 project- FIRST POLL (participants only!)
 

The moment you've all been waiting for, it's time to VOTE!!

Please, only vote if you have signed up for the project. If you did not, your vote will not be counted! If you can't remember if you are on the list, check here: http://www.orchidboard.com/community...up-thread.html

In this first poll, pick FIVE orchids only.

The poll will be open 1 week, until the evening of Weds. April 11th. That way people who are away over the long Easter weekend have plenty of time to vote. And I will be away under the 11th anyway, with no internet.

Once we have the results, we will contact vendors to find out how many they have in stock. If one/several of the top 5 are not available in sufficient amounts then we'll move down to the following plant on the list. Then we'll vote for our favorite in the final list of 5 plants.

(For those of you reading this as soon as I posted and wonder where the poll is, it's coming! It can only be created after posting the thread)

:rofl: you got me! :blushing:

NOW you can vote!! ;)

Well that was the easiest 5 votes I've ever had.

I only had to strike lawesii because I have one (though I might get a 2nd as a TC).

I think I'm going to wait a bit before voting! Not an easy choice for me!

It was easy for me. Since I did all the work on the project I got to know the plants quite well, and started to decide long ago! It also helps that I already have 7 of the plants on the list.

:biggrin: thanks a lot for all the work, Camille! :bowing

It was easy for me to vote for my "top 5" as well...

What a great list to pick from, you lucky projecteers (projectors?)! *Almost* makes me wish I had signed up this time. By my count I have 11 or 12 of these already, and as I just found out I'll be moving for school this summer I should really stop buying more plants... :blushing:

LOL Camille. I won't be voting for Prosthecea cochleata on that basis.

Think I won't vote for either of the dens... both nice, but I'd decided which varieties I liked (red lawessii, variageted leafed moniliforme) but it looks like they are not currently available in Europe.

That still leaves me with too many I wouldn't mind!

My top 4 were easy to decide, but I have about 4 plants lined up for the 5th choice!! Uh oh!
