My only request is that we do something with some color! We did the plain white one, now it's time to liven it up a little!

Okay...we're going to have to get control of this train before it runs away on us :shock:

I'm going to remove L tenebrosa from the runners-up list because it gets too large for a project plant. I am also going to have to skip on the C. dowiana (sorry, Jasen...the plant can grow to 12 inches and that's too big for a project plant)...

as of now, we have 11 people signed up (I'm amazed, by the way ;) ) and 20 plants. The math doesn't work!

Out of the 12 remaining plants from previous projects, we can remove L perrinii and C intermedia as they both might get too large to be considered a project plant.

I feel that we need to limit the poll to 15 plants so if we remove those two, we can add 5 new ones. If you guys want to keep those two, then we can choose just 3 more.

Lots of great suggestions have been made...thanks everybody...but we must fine-tune them.

So far the list is as follows:

Lepanthes elegantula

Gastrochilus calceolaris

LEPTOTES unicolor

KEFERSTEINIA tolimensis

MAXILLARIA sophronitis

Are we deleting the two mentioned and adding 5...or leaving the list as it is and adding just 3? :hmm

UPDATE: We now have FOUR openings on the list for suggestions.

That works, Jasen :clap:

We should also avoid any types that have already been project winners:

1. Phal (lobbii)
2. Angraecum (scottianum)
3. Paph (venustum)
4. Aerangis (rhodosticta)

I agree on both counts!

Let's do ditch the two biggies as well as the least colorful ones. And then add a few to the list that are available to purchase online.

To remove the less colorful ones means:
Epidendrum conopseum and B nodosa have to go.

I'm going to remove these two along with L perrinii and C intermedia.

We now have 7 openings to reach a total of 15 for the poll on Tuesday...
please keep in mind the 4 types of 'chids listed from previous projects and do not put any of them in as suggestions, folks :D

Thanks everybody :cheer:

How about Laelia jongheana?

Nice one Jasen! It's been added to the list...
