Tommy, that is what I also found out about this species when I emailed the vendor, not available at all. Hopefully his propagation efforts will be successful and it will show up again at some point. Thank you for the detailed information on your growing conditions and setup. I am learning to use spanish moss more and more with my orchids to give shade, protection and humidity.
With my growing collection of leafless, some of which may prove difficult (or impossible) to replace if necessary in the future, I have given some thought to learning how to propagate the plants, since the individual plants do not live forever. To start, I would have to coax them to flower, then pollinate the flowers. Once I do this, I could obtain and store the seed while I find a lab to do flasks. I might even try to get the seeds to germinate myself, but I understand this can be extremely challenging.
