You can spare your parts - (you might need it later) - so put the scissor down and step away from the table.
It's at SLO Orchids mounted for $30 - SLO Orchids Catalog Page
or at Andy's mounted for $25 - Andy's Orchids - Orchids Species - Orchid search by species, genus, country of origin, care and growing atTRibutes - Select the genus and species and click on Search and waaah laaaaaaa

Greg: Yeah i know its impossible to name one, i started out the thread that way but i failed miserably. I'm still interested in what others like, i'm trying to find out what i'm missing out on
oohh i like B. nodosa, Phal violacea looks amazing!
shakkai if you like Den tetragonum and other mini Dens have you tried the Dockrillias? I really like the look of the cuthbertsonii types as well, and i might get one now that i have a humidity tank working well.
Trisetella hoeijeri looks cute but it doesn't look like its sold anywhere near me either.

Thanks for the info Dorothy. I know I have searched Andy's for them before, i don't know how I missed it. I have never heard of SLO orchids though. I'm afraid it would be kinda risky to ship from Cali to Ohio now though.

I think my favorite plant (that I own) is the project 4 plant Aerangis rhodosticta. But my all time favorite has to be Polyrrhiza lindeni, unfortunitly when I went to the Smoky Mountains I returned to a dead plant

Oh Dave! I'm sorry! The Ghost orchid is kind of touchy to grow anyway isn't it?
My faves are the species phals, and the mini species dens. That said there are loads of others I love as well. Just depends on what's blooming at the moment!
