Uhoh, I have a few C. harrisoniana. I grabbed 3 when i went to SBOE last time. I'm sorry Dorothy *kicks self*

Here is one I think I'd like to throw out for considerations sake!

Aerangis distincta Orchid Web: Aerangis distincta x self

I've been itching to try this plant lol. *itch itch*

If throwing out B. nodosa, you might as well get rid of Bletilla as I have 3 selections.

Dorothy, I suggested 3 orchids in my comments on availabilty yesterday....Aerangis biloba (super fragrant), Leptodes bicolor (I think several others may have that) and in particular, Cymbidium ensifolium. We have several selections of the Cymbidium available in Canada. I'll do some more scouting today.

Just remembered something from our last project that really helped us a lot...

take a look at the web site for Paramount Orchids in Canada. If you see something there that intrigues you, then check around the vendors in the US to see if it's available here.

Unfortunately for our world-wide members, they sometimes don't have access to the same 'chids that we do here so we need to make an effort to work together on this

It worked well in Project 3

Here's a link to their Species page:

Thanks
