Any idea on when voting will start? I know originally the post said that it might take 1-2 months, but we seem to have a ton of great suggestions already and lots of people signed up. I'm not complaining- just trying to budget for my project orchid and its "traveling companions."

In past spring projects we usually finish up the process when the weather is warm enough for everyone to be able to order orchids with no risk of them freezing. I think in those project we'd usually order around early to mid april, sometimes later. Don't know what Rosie had in mind.

Me either, I am getting really antsy!
