You can have the unicorn I'm not much of a horse person, as for the angraecum? I'll send you the photo when/if it blooms!

Silken is right Ecuagenera has the Masdies and they will be in the US several times this year. You can do a pre-order and they will ship it out to you when they arrive for the show. Visit their website for a list of shows and ordering deadline info as well as the list of available plants. They have a LOT of masdies!
Ferias 2015 -
All things Angraecoid - check out Botanica LTD first. I don't think they have the punctata right now but I'm sure they'll get it in again.
Botanica Ltd. - orchids are our specialty

Good recommendation. I've talked to Brenda a few times, but it may be time to try again. I've talked to vendors coast to coast over the last 4 years and even in the UK and Germany. (UK vendor had them, but couldn't ship to the US.)

The ever elusive orchid...makes you want it even more.
Have you ever heard of Windswept in Time Orchids? Edgar and Kim Stehli...up around Cleveland, Ohio. He grows and sells a number of Angraecoids....not to mention a lot of other really cool orchids. I wouldn't be surprised if he had one. They don't have an ordering website but you can call him - (440)-838-5757.

I want ondontobrassia (Whatever it is now), Kenneth Bivens No other name. I see Kenneth Bivens this and that, but no plain Kenneth Bivens. I must have had one of the originals. That was favorite and special. I just found an old picture of it. It was like 1999. I loved that plant.

I'm not even sure of the correct nomenclature these days, but Miltonia schroederiana is one that's been on my list for awhile. I had one, and unfortunately killed it, about a decade ago. I got it from Tropical Orchid Farm, but they don't have them in stock anymore.
The flowers had the most heavenly clove scent, so strong and beautiful and I love the interesting flowers. From time to time I search online for this plant as Oncidium or Miltonia with variations on schroederiana / schroederianum /etc and I've only ever found a few hybrids for sale.

I 've had many of these, and list was quite long, till I decided I need to start imports by myself, the only way I can get what I want. My list is very short now! So on the top for this year, Dendrobium putnamii!

Andy has the Aerangis punctata, I'm getting one this week. It's just not listed on the site, you have to email him.
For me,
Iwanagara Appleblossom 'Nora'
Angraecum breve
Paphiopedilum helenae (a nice variety, in the states, with good red coloring on the lip)
