Spring 2015 plant project: FIRST VOTE! (PARTICIPANTS ONLY)

[RandomGemini]

I'm not finished hearing back from vendors on how many plants they have available on the cucumerinum. One of the vendors I spoke to yesterday told me she was willing to come up with cuttings for us, but wasn't sure she would have enough to go around and she has very few left of the previous, established divisions. So I took her off the list and have yet to hear back from the others.

Should I put up the poll today, or are you and randomgemini still waiting for replies from vendors?

Looks like we posted at the same time, and you answered my question!!

[RandomGemini]

I'll update as soon as I have a decent count. Hopefully by this evening.

[camille1585]

I'll wait for the go ahead to do the poll. I'll get the post ready, so all I have to do is paste it into a thread, and create the poll.

I've got a document I'm working from that I will just copy and paste into a post when I hear back from all of the vendors I emailed. I've already started hearing back this morning, so I suspect it was just a matter of folks getting back to their work stations.

So far, I don't think we're going to have a problem finding enough of Aerangis Citrata.

That's great! Aerangis citrata is so so cute. I had one that I kept for 2 years, but didn't survive when I left my orchids in the care of other people while I was at Cornell for 5 months, doing a research project... That trip cost me a lot of orchids. I packed my favorite plants (about a dozen) to send to Rosie in the UK to have an expert plant sitter. The box got lost...

I remember that, Camille...what a total disaster.

Aerangis citrata is confirmed that we have enough vendors at the right price (just updated my list)

[nenella]

I too remember Your bad luck , do you still have the equestris (pink,mauve'ish ,,,colour?)
I can't resist white orchids.... cloud9: :d

[RandomGemini]

Still not hearing back from a lot of the vendors with the other orchids besides Aerangis Citrata. If I were going to make a guess, I would say we're safe with it and maybe with Amesiella Monticola, when I double checked my list of vendors that I'd emailed, I realized that I forgot to email one that may have a lot of those, so I'll do that now.

I'm still waiting to hear back from most vendors.

Marilyn at Windy Hill has 20 Leptotes bicolor (mounted) all BS. She does have a minimum order though. They are priced at $12 on her website. I will say that she has exceptional plants.
