I must have missed that. Thought I had looked there.

I added the list of vendors for the UK to Dave's post last night so it probably wasn't there when you had previously looked.

... and Wow that's a gorgeous orchid... I'm going to have a really difficut time voting in this project I think, there are so many I want to do.

No, I just missed it when I was editing the first post. I'll update it now.

I think that different varieties are fine, but Dave might have to confirm that. Trying to stick to one variety might be too much of a problem for Europe as some of the plants are only available in certain varieties in Europe.

Personally I think that if you want to spend more you can, I think the aim of the price limit is to make sure that people are not put off taking part due to the cost. Again Dave will hopefully confirm that.

Exactly. If you want to spend more on a different variety your more then welcome.

However, (I think this has been mentioned), if we can get enough people to order from the same vendor, we might be able to get a discount. I believe it's worked in the past.
