This may be a long shot - but ...

Maxillarias tenuifolia, and others.

Eulophia alta, and others.

Schoenorchis fragrans.

Cycnodes / Cycnoches

Psychopsis

Even if you do not have them, maybe you can help get me some locally to where you are.

If any of you happen to know some orchid vendors / wholesalers / growers, I'd be happy to get in touch with them too, thanks!

Orchids are easy! There are way too many orchid vendors who will gladly ship! Andy's orchids in California comes to mind for the really unusual species, but there are orchid nurseries everywhere I travel.

Since you have posted that you travel to Florida on occasion, time a visit to coincide with the Redland's orchid festival at the Fruit and Spice Park in Homestead every May and you'll be amazed at the variety in a lovely setting. Actually, our local orchid clubs have auctions (ours is tomorrow) and will likely offer many of your choices.

Thanks! Yes, I know! Orchid growers / vendors are a dime a dozen - there are literally too many to just ask around. I am very disappointed to be missing THIS May's Redland show. My orchid guy will be there from Malaysia. Most of the online vendors want premium prices, though, which is fine for your usual layman, but not for folks like us :)
