Orchid Project:
Sue, can you fill me in on what's going on with the orchid project. I've been gone for a month. They said on the chat that Phap Venustrum won. What do I do next. Brenda

We will all order the Paph venustrum in April. Sue will send out a reminder via pm to let us know when to do it. We are waiting for warmer weather so there is less chance of cold damage during shipping. Welcome back!

Hi Brenda Welcome back
The Paph venustum took first place in the poll. Those of us in the U.S. will be ordering from Home Page in April. As Tin said, I'll send a group PM to participating members as a reminder.
When you place your order, it is very important that you let them know what your OB username is so the 15% discount can be applied to your project plant. Any other items ordered will not be given the discount.
Nice to have you back

Hi Dennis...this particular project is closed now, but not to worry...I usually start thinking about the next one right after I receive the current project plant
Shouldn't be long before we start a new one...I'll let you know about it when we do
It'll be great to have you join us

Hi rallygirl
Our Canadian friends are ordering from Paramount, I know one of them will be going there in person in May to pick his up
We'll probably start another project within a few months...I just can't stop myself!
When the time comes, I'll post a thread to get the thought process started and we'll decide when the discussions will start.
We've had quite a few folks asking about getting in on this project, and while it's too late for Project 3, my hope is that they'll all join in on Project 4
I hope to see you there It's lots of fun

Just ordered mine and it's coming with a buddy, a Paph (Sunshine Glory x nimeum).
Now I can't wait.

Don't bother taking it off now, it's too late.
