I kinda figured it out but go and look at the first post and see if I missed anything. Thanks.

Missing this one. It's the reject thread for the las project. Some were rejected for being hot or cool growers, or slightly too big, so we should find some nice candidates in there!

By the way, plant #7, Angraecum scottianum, can't be done since that was project 2. There weren't many people in those early projects, but it would be nice to avoid redoing those plants anyways.

Another warm suggestion (but again, could go I as well, Andy's says it favors warm)

For size, Steven Frownie's miniature orchid book lists it as dwarf (up to 8 inches):

Baptistonia echinata, seems to be available in EU using Camille's search engine and in the US for $20 at Andy's, they are small blooming size there.

Here's a pic showing the whole plant (2nd) Google Image Result for http://www.notsogreenthumb.org/galleries/misc_genera/photos/baptistonia_echinata.jpg

I am under the impression that no one from CA is getting a warm grower...is this true? I don't want to waste time researching plants that are not in CA if the warm grower needs to be available there as well?

As it stands there are no Canadian participants as of yet anyway. So go ahead

Thanks and I agree. I will remove Ang.

Can anyone get in on this? Do we just buy the plant once it's been decided?

Yes your welcome of participate. After the plant or plants are chosen there will be a vendor attached to that plant and hopefully a small discount on cost. What group or groups would you like to participate in? Cool, Interm. Warm

Awesome! I'm probably suited for warm growing. It's about 80-90 degrees during the day right now and will most likely stay that way for the rest of the summer.
