Well-established blooming size plant in a 3.25" pot.
This is one of my favorite "weird" orchids! The growth habit is unusual in that it climbs, producing new pseudobulbs above the last mature pseudobulb on stiff, short rhizomes.
They appear to be monopodial (they're not, they also produce new growth at the base of the plant, but most of the new growth emerges at the top of the plant).
In addition to the weird growth habit, the flowers are bizarre! Many (30-50+) small, fragrant white flowers emerge from around the base of new pseudobulbs. It looks like they are exploding out of the plant, alien-style!
Care: Cool-warm temps, shade-indirect light, and regular year-round watering and light feeding.

This Maxillaria produces 1-1.5" gold, wing-shaped flowers. Both the sepals and petals have maroon stripes. The lip is black.
Care: Prefers cool-intermediate temps but will tolerate warm temps, indirect light, regular watering, and light feeding year-round.

The coconut cream pie orchid! With some orchids, they're fragrant but it's a stretch to call them "chocolate" or "vanilla". With this plant, it smells like there is a pie in the oven!
This plant is one of our favorites. It grows fast and flowers well when treated nicely. The flowers are small (1.5" across) but a plant in a 6" pot may have 100 or more at the same time.
Care: Cool to warm climate, bright indirect light, let dry out between light waterings in winter.

Miniature orchid species Mediocalcar decoratum. Well established blooming size plant in a 2.25" pot.
These tiny, mat-forming plants produce a flush of tiny (the size of a sunflower kernel) orange and red flowers that remind me of candy corn! Spring bloomerCare: Cold to intermediate temps, partial shade, regular watering year-round and regular, light feeding spring-fall. Never let the plant remain dried out for an extended period, especially in temps over 75°F.
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.
Well-established blooming size plant in a 3.25" pot.A fascinating african species. The plant reaches a height of 2-3 feet and has a .5-1' flower spike that produces an abundance of fragrant 1" white flowers that form a loose sphere similar to many Epidendrum species. Flowers continue to be produced from the top of the inflorescence over a period of 4-8 weeks. This species produces many keikeis along the stems as well as old flower spikes. Big plants are bushy and somewhat rambling.
Does best in large pots with a terrestrial mix.Care: int-hot temps. Very bright light-full sun. Regular watering year round.
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.

This is a cute, easy, fast-growing, sprawling miniature that likes cool-warm temps and bright indirect light. Produces creamy white sweetly fragrant flowers in the spring. Care: intermediate-warm temps, bright indirect light, regular watering, and light feeding spring-fall with a drier rest period and little-no fertilizer 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.
