That I can do, it's not hard to do and doesn't take much time. Will take care of it tomorrow evening post my results here!

I see a lack of Cymbidium's on our list! I know most are large, but Andy's Orchids has a mini listed and I thought it would be fun to try!

Here it is: Cymbidium dayanum IOSPE PHOTOS
US: Andy's: Andy's Orchids - Orchid Species - Cymbidium - dayanum
EU:Cymbidium dayanum — Orchidarium und Alpengarten SCHRONEN
CA: Having trouble finding but I see no participants from Canada at this point, is that correct?

I'll try and provide a couple more options if I have a chance.

Also, I'll be participating in the intermediate and/or warm, depending on money at the time of purchase (is that ok?)!

Just thinking out loud here, but we haven't tried any Dendrobiums I don't think? What about a mini like Dendrobium monilforme IOSPE PHOTOS

I know some forms can get spendy, but if we bought a regular one it wouldn't be so expensive. If anyone is open to the idea then I will see where it is available.

Ok I found it here for those in the EU: Orchideen Kopf Shop

You'll have to scroll way down on the list to find it!

Ok...and here is one more suggestion...

Chiloschista viridiflava: IOSPE PHOTOS (color form is not correct in picture)
US: Available at Andy's & Botanica: Orchid Species
EU: Chiloschista viridiflava :: Schwerter Orchideenzucht - Das Orchideen Zentrum Westfalens (color form may not be correct)

[camille1585]

If you want Dens, I'll dig up the ones I had proposed/thought of in past projects and check availability. I think Den tetragonum was one of them.

How about some Angraecoids too?

I like Angrarcoids, I just killed my didieri. I neeeed a new one.

Just for Info... I have a Chiloschista viridiflava from Schwerter, and it is the correct species (the picture in the website is wrong. It is Chiloschista lunifera). However, I would not recommend buying the plant from them, if you don't have experience mounting and adapting a plant to a new environment. The plants (and this is explaind in the website - in German) are not mounted and you would receive only a bunch of roots needing to be mounted. Nothing quite difficult, but you would need very high relative humidity in the air to avoid the plant drying out too much. My plant took almost one year to get fixed on a piece of good, and it was in my orchidarium all the time (warm and very humid!)
