    Does anyone know of a domestic source for these species?

    Maybe Botanica for the Oeonia? I know many of these came in looking very rough from Malala. I'm not sure how many have actually survived the import process over the years. I think Jacob had a healthy plant at one time.

    I've come across the Pleuro a few times on Ebay, but they weren't cheap. I knew of a nursery that carried it relatively recently at one point but have forgotten who it was...maybe Parkside?

    Will do. I checked Parkside's web page (as Zach suggested) and it wasn't listed. I may make some phone calls and emails following my upcoming trip. I'll post here if I find anything.

    If you find that Oeonia, make sure you get one for me. I will trade my P. teres and send one of my grandmother's arms as bonus.

    ps, I don't know the plant source. It was a gift 7-8 years ago.

    In that new Aerangis book I noticed that Jacob has a Aerangis x Oeonia hybrid registered. I want to guess rosea x luteo alba.

    interesting...I wonder if Jacob has a picture of the bloom? I think he is required to send the RHS a pic whenever a new nothogenus is created.

    Kelly, did you get in on the Malala order for some Oeonia goodness?

    No, I didn't. I have never ordered from Malala and probably never will. I will leave those plants to the hard core Ang collectors. What did they have available?

    The volucris and oncidiflora. The latter of which is synonymous with rosea.

    There is a selfing fruit of oncidiflora, so couple more years...
