I have an Anacacho Orchid Tree with a white bloom that is just finishing its bloom cycle. I could send you some seeds if that is the one you're looking for.

I have "Pata de Vaca" trees & seeds - color purple. I can send you a couple. I had white but I lost the tree with a previous years frost storm. Is there anyone who would trade purple for other color(s)?

Duarte, I have a white one (sold to me as anacacho orchid tree) but when I went out today to pull the seed pods off, they had already opened up. :( ( I can save some next year for you though). Would love to have purple!
