No, not for me. I need a gift for my co-worker who is having minor surgery today and I thought this might be something she would like and easy to grow. Something like a Gower's Ramsey or the like.
I figured before I went hunting around, I'd ask here if anyone has anything available.
Thanks!!

Thanks Stan, I think I really want a yellow one - cheery, you know? I know I could go get a crappy HD one but I'd like to get something a bit nicer and more impressive.

I have one (not Gowers Ramsey, but close) in high bud... Don't know when it will open, but maybe soon. Have a few brassias that might be suitable.
For me, it seems to be brassia and their hybrids blooming. I son't see many of the yellow 'dancing doll' type things in bloom in the summer. I don't grow oncidinae very well (haven't quite figured them out in the greenhouse), but I have noticed that brassias tend to be summer bloomers. A few Odontocidiums are in bud right now, and I just donated a Degamoara Skywalker in bloom to the society auction table, but I think those things might be spiking by mistake. Heck, I have phals spiking right now. Big standards, not doritis hybrids. Weird.
