This is Miltonia (regnelii v alba x (spectabilis v moreliana x Seminole Blood). I know it's a mouthful but we haven't registered a name for it yet! Large, well-established blooming size plant in 3.25" pot.
I love this new cross we made! Every single plant has unique flowers! All have produced 3-6 flowers on their first flower spike. Flowers have been 3"-4" across. The majority of plants have had spotted flowers. The plant flowers in the late summer/early fall. I have included several pictures of flowers that have already bloomed to show a representation of the flowers we have seen so far. Please note: I cannot pick a particular flower pattern. Later in the season I will have auctions for individual plants with select flowers on our eBay site (Orchids for the People). Select plants will be considerably more expensive!
Care: Intermediate - warm temps, bright indirect sun, regular watering, and light feeding year-round.
Blooming-size divisions in 3.25" pots.
This is a selfing of the first orchid I ever bought (around 1988) ! It came from Rod McClellan's when it was still in South San Francisco. The parent plant has lived in 5 homes and 3 greenhouses as I've dragged it around through college and after. Needless to say it is a survivor! It has been grown in numerous environments but all the books say it prefers intermediate to warm conditions. It does like to stay on the moist side. I've always kept them in very bright light, as I do all my plants, so the leaves are on the "lime" side of green (As Miltonia Leaves should be). These plants do fine in pots but love to be mounted or in a basket.
The flowers are beautiful. The petals and sepals are dark purple and the lip is lighter lavendar. They have the pleasant light fragrance of black licorice. The plant flowers in the fall. Each spike has 1-2 flowers that are about the size of my hand.
Newly divided blooming size plants in 3" net pots.
An uncommon orchid that is also easy to grow. The only species in this genus, N. pulchella is a creeper that grows into a mat. Can be hung up in its current basket and allowed to trail where it wishes but also adapts easily to being mounted vertically or horizontally. This species doesn't need repotting very often and doesn't need a large mount, pot or basket because the majority of the plant just dangles in open space! Flowers in the Fall with bright lavendar flowers.Care: Can be grown cool-warm and prefers intermediate light. We water them a lot in the Spring/Summer and only a little in the Winter.
Well-established blooming size plant in a 3.25" pot.
Closely related to Epidendrums, these plants are very easy to grow and flower. Beautiful, long-lasting bluish-purple flowers emerge from the tips of the long, branching canes late winter all the way through summer. One of the longest flowering periods of any plant in our greenhouses. Rooted branches can easily be divided, like a reed stem Epidendrum.

In our humble opinion, one of the prettiest and showiest of the "Encyclia group" (it's been called Encyclia, Prosthecea, and Panarica in the last decade so take your pick of names!). The flowers, which are 4"+, are without a doubt some of the largest flowers of the group. Each 18-24" flower spike will have 8-14 flowers that open simultaneously. Plus they have a nice, light fragrance in the evening!
Easy to grow and very forgiving.
Care: cool-warm temps, bright indirect light, regular watering, and fertilizer spring-fall with a drier winter.
