Hey Wally...thanks for joining our project! Less than two weeks to go!!!

[nhorchidguy]

so, what is on our current possibility list?

Things have changed enough, I'm no longer sure.

BTW, my Brassia 'Spiders Gold' is about to burst, and I am trying out something new with my Masdie to see if I can get it to bloom (in about two months the plant has gone from 4 growths to about 18...I think it might be time to encourage some bloomage

Hi...
you can use this link to get to the list we're working on. Scroll down to the bottom section "OAK HILL GARDENS LIST".

You can go to www.oakhillgardens.com to see what they have. If you find something you'd like to put up for discussion, just enter the link for it here and I'll copy it to the master list

Happy hunting...

I don't know about you guys, but that HOLCOGLOSSUM wangii looks exquisite! or I could always go for that PAPHIOPEDILUM lowii or PLATYSTELE misera...

Ok, I'll stop, I'll stop...gorgeous all of them!

Ok, not to be the party pooper, but how do fols feel about hybrids? I have a few, but I can't help but gravitate to the species...

Marco! Are you okay? Need me to call an ambulance???

We can have all of those on the list! All you need to do is go to www.oakhillgardens.com and post the links here for the ones you'd like

Once you do that, I can copy them to the list...and you even get your own special color for your name

Marleneann.

[cb977]

YAY Marleneann!!! I'm adding you to the list and I'll put your name on the retusa

[wallyworld]

Hi everyone....what do we do if I already have some of these? I grow mainly vandaceous orchids and I have quite a few of them. I have Rhy. retusa ( which bloomed gorgeous this year), neofinetia falcata, and Vanda denisoniana and some hybrids.

Another one which I do love and do not have is Cycnodes Wine Delight 'JEM' FCC/AOS. However, everyone should know that cycnodes like a winter rest without any water or leaf growth. I know the person that had this plant awarded, Jamie Lawson of Orlando and how he told me to grow this species, is to take the plant and place it away from any accidental watering and all the leaves will drop during the winter. I can see that with your other project that you like to do updates during the growing of the plant. Might be alittle boring showing each other bare stalk with no leaves until spring.
