Good dwarfs?

[King_of_orchid_growing:)]

They're rare, Oak Hill was where I got the Phal lindenii, so they have them, but not for sale yet.

Call Andy during business hours for Phal gibbosa.

Phal parishii and Phal lobbii, you may have to find elsewhere, I don't know where at the moment. Oak Hill had Phal parishii for sale, they're just not up for sale yet. Phal parishii is fragrant too. These always go fast. I never got one because by the time they were up for sale, I had other financial priorities to take care of. By the time I could afford one, they were gone.

If you like slightly larger orchids very closely related to Phals, you could try Kingidium deliciosa, Kingidium chibae, or Kingidium minus.

A smallish Phal type of plant that also has a special miniature variant is Sedirea japonica, like someone else had mentioned.

Of these, I've only grown Kingidium chibae and Sedirea japonica.

Some time I may call Andy then.

I did find some of the mini phals on ebay but they wanted $35 which is a bit much for me for one plant.

The Sedirea japonica look wonderful, I just have to find some somewhere after I decide how to set up the terrarium

I will keep my eyes open for the other kingdoms you just mentioned, I love all orchids I am just trying to find some good minis for the tank

[King_of_orchid_growing:)]

Oak Hill sold Phal parishii for $15. Phal lindenii went for $15 - $20 at Oak Hill.

Andy sold Phal gibbosa for $25 or $35 (forgot which). I think Andy sold Kingidium deliciosa for $25, if I'm not mistaken.

There are other places that sell Kingidium deliciosa, such as Santa Barbara Orchid Estate.

Phal appendiculata I had to buy from out of the country from Ooi Leng Sun Orchids, (http://www.aaorchids.com/shop/).

I will definitely call now

I bookmarked the Santa Barbara site and will browse a bit

Try looking at Orchids by Hausermann as well.

Orchids By Hausermann

Btw, Vanda (Neofinetia) falcata IS fragrant, they're night fragrant. They're moth pollinated, that's why.

Thanks I book marked it.

I made a list of all the plants mentioned on this thread and will try to get prices for them and websites selling them. It will help me and possibly help others looking for minis

The price and abbreviation of the nurseries name is by the plants scientific name if available.

There are also some side notes on them.

The bold ones I really like, and the underlineded bolded ones I REALLY really Liked. Well, I lied all of them but I was a bit choosy in which I would want first. I haven't really looked any up care wise yet though.

Some of them there were multiple species on a site, so I listed the name of those.
