Spring 2015 plant project: FIRST VOTE! (PARTICIPANTS ONLY)
 

I've finally finished going through all the suggestions, and thanks to your hard work (especially Melissa!) we now have a list of plants that meet criteria and are available in the US and EU, and in some cases other participating countries (though we didn't really look those up, not knowing the vendors there...)

Please vote for your top 5 favorites, and only if you have signed up to take part in the project! If you can't remember, the list is here:http://www.orchidboard.com/community...up-thread.html The poll will be open until sunday night.


Here are the plants. Because the IOSPE links often have pretty bad photos of them, I also included a link to photos of it.

Camille,

C. aclandiae didn't make the list?

I really don't know the 2 EU growers you listed and can't find much information about them. And I can't find it (larger than a seedling) anywhere else. I hesitated a long time to remove it or not. Too late now, I can't modify the poll...

Actually now it's possible to edit polls! So I've added it back in :) You helped me so much with the research that you deserve to have a favorite included ;)

I was really torn between Aerangis Citrata and Amesiella Monticola. Wow... what a tough call!

It's so hard to choose! I would be happy trying to grow any of these!

1. Cattleya aclamdiae
2. Aerangis luteo-alba (var. rhodosticta)
3. Aerangis citrata
4. Oeniella polystachys
5. Cattleya Walkeriana
....oh that was tough, phew! Really these are all great orchids so I am excited for anyone of these to be chosen :)

Thanks, Camille!!!

Leptotes bicolour and tulumnia.

I also don't see either of my plants?

It is a tough decision!!!

Woot!!! Voted!

So far, Podangis dactyloceras seems fairly popular. I have quite a liking for a couple of the other ones, really, but also it would be interesting to get a genus I've never heard of before.
