OK, In order to be eligible for the growing project, every member MUST forgive me for all this confusion.
Lots of sidetracking happening....you've got to also trust me on this
I spent a good part of the day contacting vendors and after all is said and done, Mike's communications with Oak Hills Gardens, has turned out to be the most sensible choice of vendors with a nice variety of plants in which to choose from, very fair pricing being offered to us and a reputation to trust that once we decide which orchid for the project, one that will be in good health! Le Chiam!
Oak Hill Gardens
This is the only possible way in which to offer everyone a variety without it becoming a gazillion plants from which to start elmininating for a final vote.
Take a look at the Oak Hills' wholesale price list and choose up to 3 plants from that list. Please get your count in by Wednesday.....here, in this thread!
Internet Orchid Species Photo Encyclopedia for assistance.
