So far it's just 2 people that aren't on the project who voted. PaphMadMan & salmonmanAK.

Can I just check something.

Did we say that varieties other than the standard were OK. You see I really like the Denrobium parishii (Dark) and it's also easier for me to get hold of that than the standard.

Just want to clarify before I place my vote.

Hold on... I'm confused because that one is in Dave's list at the top but NOT in the poll. Am I missing it, or has it been dropped.

[Call_Me_Bob]

i dont know why that one didnt make the list, but dave is doing the best he can, and he had MANY tabs open at the time 3 pages of notes! im sure he can tell you why its not on the list, or fix it, later. i think he may be at work

[RosieC]

Sorry I've not looked through the full list before as I've been quite busy, so I've not spotted some of the potential issues.

Dendrobium laevifolium is listed as Großräschener Orchids for the Europe. Their site specifies 'half grown'. The price does not bother me but it looks like it is not blooming size as they usually list it as that if it is.

thats not good. seems there are a few problems with this poll. but people make mistakes.

im not trying to critisize, just making an observations

[RosieC]

Oh I know, not blaming Dave if a mistake was made.

To begin with I was trying to help him keep the list straight but then I've not had enough 'quality' time to check everything. I'm trying to sort through the list myself to help make my decision and have 10 windows open just now, so I know just what it's like

No problem anyway, there are a lot of other nice ones on the list so I've got plenty to choose from

[RosieC]

If Dendrobium laevifolium get chosen then maybe I'll just have to get a smaller plant.

[Call_Me_Bob]

you shouldnt have to get a smaller plant though! we could just choose a different one

[RosieC]

Just a note, that the Laelia Purpurata on Großräschener Orchids is one year to flowering size.

I've already got one of these so I won't be voting for it even though I'll get another if it's chosen (after all there are so many varieties of this one).
