This one will be a bit of work but after having our Sederia japonica project turn into a multi-layered event...and our circle of friends getting it accomplished...we can do anything!!!
I say we bounce around our ideas for another week or so and then we'll get down to business. With the work involved, this might very well become our last project before winter...
who's game?

Sue I'm confused...why are we voting on species that fit the bill for the condition parameters? I'd thought that this was supposed to be a mystery project...i.e. we contact a grower to provide a plant in the temperature range/size selected, and we try to figure it out from there. IOW we request that the grower send anyone requesting a "cool" plant something small, species, and cool growing (and all growers requesting "cool" get the same plant)--ditto for the other temp. selections; then those of us who are growing try to figure out what it is and see who is first to bloom it...
But to throw another wrench in the gears can we have some leeway on size for this project? I know a lot of us grow small due to space, but I've got to believe that I am not the only one who can handle something a bit larger vs. compact/mini... Perhaps we can just request that all plants come from the same temp. range and alliance? It would make it easier on the vendors as well--as you have mentioned not all might have 20x of the same plant, but if a few of us request intermediate and large or intermediate and micro-mini this might alleviate that problem, and, open the project to more people. Heck, we could just vote on an alliance of plants and let the vendors do their worst...
