Can I still participate? The only plant I have among the list is the Brassada Orange Delight, so I'd love to try whatever the final vote.
Will there be another chat for the project?

Hi Terry,
Where did you get your Brassada Orange Delight?
By the way folks, it seems we all missed this bit of news...it's off the list but I still want to know where to get one

Tin,
There are three sizes of L. perrinii listed at Oak Hill and none of them are blooming size.
It is available at Santa Barbara Orchid Estate
Santa Barbara Orchid Estate Home Page starting at $35.00
It is also available at CLAN Orchids. Those of us here in Florida will probably be most familiar with them. They have a great reputation and friends who have purchased from them have always been very happy with their 'chids.
It comes in a 4.5" pot and the price is $23.95.
Okay, since Brassada Orange Delight is now off the list, my three choices are:
1. Laelia tenubrosa
2. Phal. corningiana
3. Brassia verrucosa

Hi Ludisia,
L. perrinii has a chance but the other two are unavailable to many of us.
Can you choose 2 others?
