RE: Orchids in Medit climates, hardiness and availability

David,
To continue answering your question about outdoor orchids, the Southern
California Horticultural Society also published Outdoor Growing Orchids for
the Greater Los Angeles Area.  A number of Sobralia species, including
macrantha, are listed with the code *** meaning "Grows everywhere with
reasonable care, water, frost protection, etc."  Spathoglottis is not
listed.

There are two terrestial orchids that I have
occasionally seen here in California and are quite
showy, but I have not been able to locate sources for
them, or find out how hardy they might be in USDA Zone
9/10 climates.  I'd appreciate it if anyone is growing
these, or knows of sources:

Sobralia macrantha- 
The other orchid that interests me is Spathoglottis
plicata,
