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.

I too was investigating the dendrobium monilforme but I don't know specific names within this category. If someone knows names and would post them I would be more than happy to look up locations all around!
Thnx

As far as I know in Europe it's difficult to get anything other than the standard species. I have one specific one, but I had to have it imported from the US when New World Orchids went to a UK show.
If this plant makes the cut, why not let people decide which they want? I think the main differences are just size and color.

What is the name of the standard species? I have no idea...That way I can at least look up that name and where it's located to see if it's even feasible?

The orchid is Dendrobium moniliforme. This is a prized orchid in Japan and much breeding was done there, which resulted in dozens and dozens of new forms. For example, the one I have is Den moniliforme 'Matsushima'. If you look at this website, you'll find example of many many others! New World Orchids - Den moniliforme

Very nice, Kinda like the Neo project. Maybe we could make that a side project or the next project if it doesn't make the cut. I'm not finding it in Canada either. The ones at New World are priced right.

I will keep the DENDROBIUM parishii on a list if no one from Canada join's. The Dendrobium miyakei is to expensive unless you can find one cheaper then Andy's. I'll put the
Dendrobium loddigesii to the list.
