One thing I did wonder, though, was about the plant being an Intermediate grower...
Aerangis bilboa is described as: This small sized, hot to warm growing, epiphytic species
Masdevallia tovarensis is cold growing, so this may not be a good choice for a project plant after all - and as much as I want it!! Great idea though, Wally, thinking about bloom season! Something that is winter flowering would be excellent given the timing!

If anybody likes a particular plant, make your choice known here so your name can be added next to it in the Tentative Plant thread.
The ten plants that have the most names next to them will be put into the final poll...and the plant that gets the most votes in that poll will be the plant for the project

How many choices do we have??

Cool growing orchids are out for a LOT of people, including me. I think I will be needing to cull some of my paphs that require more cool environments year 'round.
At least until I can get a swamp cooler installed in my orchid room!!!!

Me 2. I really can't handle anything big or cool-growing. I prefer mini, warm growing. Don't care on species or hybrid.

I am not sure how available this little cutie is but
I would like it to be considered as it is a mini (grows 1 foot high),temperature tolerant and mildly fragrant.
