If this plant makes the cut, why not let people decide which they want? I think the main differences are just size and color.

Very nice, Kinda like the Neo project. Maybe we could make that a side project or the next project if it doesn't make the cut. I'm not finding it in Canada either. The ones at New World are priced right.

I will keep the DENDROBIUM parishii on a list if no one from Canada join's. The Dendrobium miyakei is to expensive unless you can find one cheaper then Andy's. I'll put the
Dendrobium loddigesii to the list.

Hi All,
If possible I would like to add my name to the project participant list. I would be interested in the warm and/or the intermediate plant(s).
For my part I would suggest Angraecum didieri, and/or Oncidium ornithorynchum. In Canada both available at Paramount. Both in Europe at Grobraschener. Unable to find the Oncidium at the listed sites in the US (which seems odd??)
I have only been growing for a couple years, so I have a long list of plants I have not grown. Look forward to gaining new experience.
Stephen

I got the Orchidwiz research done this evening, and here are the results!
I don't know if the size includes the spike or not, and I forgot to check the spike tab for the length.
Aerengis biloba ----SIZE: relatively small monopodial. -----TEMPS: year round 78-88F(day) and 63-68F(night)
Angraecum didieri ---- older growths up to 8in------ Summer days: 82-84, summer nights: 64-65, winter day and night temps 10 degrees cooler.
Brassavola nodosa---- can reach height of 15-18in, but is often shorter.----- Summer days: 87, summer nights 74-75, winter temps about 10 degrees cooler
Bulbophyllum carunculatum------ large plant, up to 18in -------- no culture information
Cattleya intermedia--- variable size 5-12in ---------- Summer days: 80-83, summer nights: 69-71. Winter temps 8-10 degrees cooler
Dendrobium aggregatum --- 4-8in ------- Summer days 79-82, nights 66, winter days same, nights 48-49
Dendrobium rigidum --- 6-16in. Plant size is highly variable. ------- Summer days 88-89, nights 75. Avoid above 90. Winter days 8-10 degrees cooler, nights 5 cooler
Dendrobium lawesii ----- 10-18in -------- All year days 80-83, nights 60-64, large diurnal range, grows well in cool to intermediate temps
Dendrobium loddigesii ---- 4-7in ------- Summer days 74-76, nights 67. warmest weather = time of heaviest rainfall. Winter temps 15-20 degrees lower. Cool dry rest to initiate blooms.
Dendrobium victoriae-reginae ---- 10-24in, occasionally more ----- year round days 66-72, nights 50-56
Dendrochilium wenzelii ---- up to 16in -------- summer days 89-93 nights 68. winter about 6-10 cooler
Epidendrum nocturnum –-- variable size, up to 39in ------ Year round day 77-81, night 61-63. Can adapt to temps 10 degrees warmer or cooler
Laelia anceps ---- 12-14in ---------- summer days 76-78, nights 60. Winter 5-8 cooler
Lycaste marcrophylla --- no size, but bulbs up to 4in, deciduous leaves 16-30in. ----- year round day 79-82, night 57-60
Paphiopedilum lawrenceanum --- moderate size, leaf span up to 16in ----- year round day 82-84, night 70
Phal. Mannii --- leaves 6-18in (but all the ones I’ve seen are at the low end of the range!) ----- summer days 85, night 69-73. Winter days 80, night 45-56. Needs 3-5 month cool, dry rest.
Rhynchostylis coelestis --- 8in ------- summer days 88, nights 75, warmest days in spring before monsoon. Winter days similar, nights 56.
Trigonidium egertonianum ---- rather large, up to 26in ------ year round days 82-85, night 68-73
Zygopetalum marulatum : not in Orchidwiz

Thank You Camille, Thats a big help. Looks like the Dendrobium victoriae-reginae, Epidendrum nocturnum and Trigonidium egertonianum the can go. As far as the spike is concerned I don't think anyone is going to mind it being a little longer
