Take pictures!

Hi All,

Regret that Orchidview no longer does flasks and they have sold out of their compots.

Bummer.

I'm in!

Island Girl, what flasks from Peter did you like? I might be able to scrounge up a few extras over here if I have them. Anyway, looking forward to see how and what everyone does.

Put you down, and taken Orchidview off the list... Also added Writhlington (though they'd probably only be of use to anyone who has them coming to their orchid society I guess!)

Hausermann's also has some cattleya flasks

If I am not to late I would love to participate :D I hope to have a flask before the end of April.

I better get cracking before you people buy them all up.

I'm on the edge with this project. What on earth would I do with all of those baby orchids... No space as is! Yikes. Oh, I so wanna... I'm torn!

Share with others Paul! I have no intention of growing out 35 of mine, but 10-15 and share the rest. I'm in

When they're big enough we can all trade with each other :)

If you have any nice phals you wanna share let me know!

LOL... But for me thats the issue. Perhaps I'm not very knowledgable about the process, but where on earth would I put 30 or more new orchids?!!! LOL... Oh, I so want to cave into the dark side cuz ya'll have ORCHIDS!!!!

They are small so you could fit them all in the space of 2 or 3 big Catts!

Oh, you guys are TERRIBLE!!! Such enablers you all are!!! ROFL!!!

Seriously, I am considering it and the space possibly needed. Let me research some more and see. I so terribly want to join, but need to be sure I can before I commit!

DO IT DO IT DO IT DO IT DO IT

Rofl!!!!

And just think, when you bloom out seedlings and a good amount of them too, you have some good chances of getting something that's extra special and award quality!

Paul, I might be able to get you a replate of a cross or two. That way it's not too many.

I might be game for that, and would pay for shipping and packaging.

Has anyone ordered from woodstream orchids?

I can recommend this seller

elvis.813 | eBay

I have ordered epidendrums from them and they are very well packed and the plants were hardy. They also sent me a freebie (I ordered 3 and they sent 4).

I just bloomed my first one from them last summer.

I was thinking of ordering from them but when I tried to email them to ask if the flask I wanted was available it said that the email did not send.

Maybe I should try to call them

They are in the GH Friday - Sunday so that would be the best time to call them.

Just to let everyone know it looks like I'm going to be off line for a couple of days. Will update when I get back!

I have been trying to get ahold of them but no one is answering, should I just make the order :dunno:

They might be away at a show. I would keep trying to contact them.

I placed my order with Woodstream yesterday but haven't heard anything yet.:crossfing

Bill

If I've missed anyone let me know!

I think we might as well leave this open a bit longer. I know there was talk of till the end of May, but maybe that's a bit long?

Just wanted to let everyone know that I have a flask of Dtps. Minho Princess x Phal.(New Cinderella x Dtps. Sun Princess) that I don't want if someone would like to take it off my hands.

I'm open to trading for something else or selling it, or maybe even just sending it to someone if they pay for shipping (and if they win me over with a good argument lol).

I see no reason to actually close it, anyone can get a flask if they want to!

Just thought I'd drop a note in here, as there seem to be a lot of people joined on here that haven't posted in the main project thread yet. If you are waiting to get a flask later or something it would be great to hear from you about your plans... I hope people don't feel they can't post until they've got a flask or feel they are 'too late'!

OMG, I almost missed this project! I'm in if it's not too late!

I've been looking at flasks recently, but held off because I didn't think I could grow them out, but being able to do this as part of a project (with all the input from "the pros" to guide me) has pushed me over the edge....(in a good way, of course!)

I'm leaning toward cattley alliance species or primary hybrids if I can find them--or maybe one of them and a phal flask.....I'll keep you posted!

Catherine

Yes, jump in! I'll add you to the list.

Thank you! I'll order flasks over the weekend and let you know what I get!

I'm still in! :) just deflasked one of my flasks a week ago today... Gotta post the pics! (which involves digging out my computer.. Ekk *I use my iPad usually*) I waited cuz I was planning on leaving town, so I waited a bit :)

Almost missed this. I'll join in. I deflasked a flask of exactly 40 seedlings of Paph. liemianum ('Birchwood' HCC/AOS x self) from Fox Valley Orchids in late winter/early spring.

Is this still open? If so, I'd like to join. I don't know how I missed this thread earlier.

Of course it's still open! Later is better than never. Especially on a 3-8 year project... :-P

Great, thanks. I just sent off an email to Kingfisher.
