Thanks for the links, when I see the catalogues I want to move to Australia!! I love the Aussie Dens as well, but those are extremely difficult to find here as well, I only know of one UK grower who has some every few years.

So far my best bets are the 1st and 3rd places you list, the other 2 either don't have flasks or ask a $500 minimum order for overseas. Might be the case for the other 2 as well, but I'll have to email. Hope not, that way I can order lots of little flasks in the spring!

I'm thinking that this would be a perfect excuse to go visit my australian cousins!

Wow, I love that Masdevallia!

With the Sarcs and Dens, is it possible for a group of you to band together and do an order you can share? That way you spread the costs and get some new hybrids in some cases that no one over there has ever seen before.

I had thought of that also, but assuming I find enough interested people it's going to be a logistical nightmare dividing everything up and mailing it out to everyone. May have to do that anyway if it's still too expensive (shipping and paperwork) to buy alone from Down Under for example.
