I have been looking for quite a while now for Sophronitis brevipedunculata and Sophronitis wittigiana without any success. I am hoping that someone might know of a source that I might check out. Please let me know if you do. Thanks!

Jerry I just did a search and New World Orchids have them both. They are NBS for $50 but seems reasonable to me.

Thanks to both of you. I think I will order from New World even though Miranda is cheaper.

I am so grateful for the help. I think my computer is failing because I have Googled for days and didn't find these sources.

D in this case I'm going to have to desagree with you. I purchased 4 plants from Miranda's and won't be purchasing again. I rather take my business elsewhere. The last one that was still struggling L. grandis just went into the compost pile last week. I have heard good things from New World Orchids especially for the Neo lovers.

Thanks for the lead Dorothy. In this case I have the advantage. Miranda's is only about twenty miles from me and I can personally check the plant and who knows what other nice things I might find. I am also interested in rupiculous laelias and it appears that he has some.
