I didn't see the Chiloschista suggestions.
I wanted to let
all the people who are participating in this project know, before they take a vote and make a final decision, that growing Chiloschistas takes quite a bit of skill and dedication.
Despite being touted as being the easier genus of leafless orchids to grow, they're still quite challenging.
If a large majority can find enjoyment in the challenges and dedication it takes to successfully grow Chiloschistas for this project, then by all means go for it.
I dunno, if it were me, I'd do Chiloschistas on my own rather than put it up for a project like this.
I'm thinking of the fun factor of this project, where everyone can be involved, have fun, and participate. Personally, while I love Chiloschistas, it's not something that comes to mind for this kind of an event.
My recommendations for possible "leafless" orchids to do for this project would be:
Phal braceana
Phal lowii
Phal taenialis
Phal wilsonii
The above mentioned Phals would be challenging enough, while still be forgiving enough to allow people to stay in the project.
