3.25" wide (at the top) x 3.75" tall square Waterdance pots.
Lightweight, durable, and relatively inexpensive. Here at the Orchids for the People nursery, this is our go-to pot for "4inch" plants!The advantage these pots have is the bottom. Instead of drain holes, these pots simply have a screen over the bottom. This allows air to easily circulate and penetrate the pots from the bottom and oxygenate the roots.
Not only that, it also eliminates water pooling in the bottom of the pot eliminating the biggest source of root rot. In addition, any fine, decomposing potting medium falls right out the bottom, eliminating the accumulation of anaerobic "mud" in the bottom of the pot. Plus, these pots have "feet" at each corner which raise the bottom of the pot up off the table allowing for even better air circulation around the bottom of the pot.
When used with our long-strand coconut fiber, we think it is one of the best ways to grow orchids!

Well-established, blooming-size plant in a 3.25" pot.I'm excited about this new in-house Anacheilium hybrid! The wonderfully fragrant flowers, which are non-resupinate and about the size of a quarter, have butter-yellow petals with a sprinkling of purple dots. The nicely rounded white lip is accentuated by purple stripes with a hint of yellow in the throat. The flower spikes produce 3-8 flowers.Care: Intermediate-warm temps, bright indirect light, regular watering, and light feeding spring-fall with a slightly drier rest period in the winter.
These are seed-grown seedlings so the flowers will vary slightly from plant to plant.
Synonyms: Encyclia cochleata, Prosthechea cochleata
Commonly known as the black orchid or the cockleshell orchid, around our nursery it is affectionately referred to as the octopus orchid. It is also the national flower of Belize. This is a very nice outcross of 2 great, large flowered parents. One has wide sepals and the other plant has nice long twisted sepals. Both have great color and are above average size. Anacheilium cochleatum randomly produces flower spikes year round, mostly spring-fall. 5-20+ flowers develop sequentially over a long period of time. Easy to grow and a prolific flowerer, it loves to be treated just like a Cattleya.
Care: Intermediate-warm temperatures, bright indirect sunlight and regular year round watering and light feeding.
A small, epiphytic, vining (the only Anthurium that is a vine), creeper widely distributed from southern Mexico to Central and South America, where it grows in a variety of habitats, at altitudes between sea level and 2700 m. It grows a well-developed system of roots to support the fleshy stems with elliptical leaves, glossy green above and mottled brown below, an upright or sometimes pendent inflorescence followed by very attractive, lavender, pearl-shaped berries. Care: This is an easy to care for plant! Bright indirect light, temps 58°F-80°F, and regular watering and light feeding year-round. When repotting use 50/50 small orchid bark and soil, or any orchid potting medium. May also be potted in a hanging basket or mounted.
