Dear Dorothy, I'm not fully familiar with the rules about what makes an MDB
an MDB, but if it's just a height requirement (and that it has a beard, of
course), then there are lots of aril species (including some of the
pseudoregelias) that would qualify.

I love the dwarf beardeds too, and I really like the bizarre colors &
patterns that the aril world has to offer.  So hybridizing MDB arilbreds is
naturally one of my interests.  Others have hybridized aril-pums already,
but shame on me for not growing them yet!
