Oak Hill (New & Improved) Plant List

For those who have not read my last couple of posts in the Oak Hill Gardens Supply List thread, please note that the original list of plants we were choosing from, turned out not to satisfy all requirements for the project, including guaranteed prices, guaranteed number of plants for the project and overall, choices.

The following list is guaranteed by Oak Hill. They have enough plants to satisfy all, individual orders.

One objective in the selection was to keep the costs down for all members. Oak Hill has offered us a 25% discount on plants priced at $16.00 or higher, therefore, any plant costing $16.00, will cost no more than $25.00 with the shipping and handling ($12.50 s/h), but a plant costing $15.95 and lower, will be regular price.

A little ahead of myself here and will remind everyone after the poll is taken, that those members doing the ordering over the internet, will be charged the full price as they're entering all their credit information and will have the discounted price applied (providing the plant chosen is $16.00 or higher) before the plant is shipped. There will be room in the ordering section for 'comments' and it's there you should note to Oak Hill that this was for the growing project on OrchidGeeks.

Hopefully all members can select and note their choices by this Friday. Again, please choose up to 3 plants from the following list and post your choices here, in this thread!

We are on the right track now!

I know a few members have expressed that they'll be happy with whatever everyone else chooses and the final decision. That's how all members who vote, will happily feel BUT come on folks, get in the spirit a little and put your 3 petals worth in and cast your votes. Afterall, this is an election year.
