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.

A beautiful, medium-sized orchid that produces long chains of small, lantern-shaped creamy white fragrant flowers. The foliage is also interesting. If you grow it shady the plant stays dark green. If you grow it with a little sun, the leaves turn orange from the tip.
Care: Cool-warm, bright indirect light, regular watering, and light feeding throughout the year with slight drying between waterings.
3 large, mature bare-root bulbs of Pleione formosana. Lab raised from seed, bred from our finest examples.Ready to be potted and will flower in 6-8 weeks! I will ship these with a detailed care sheet. The plants die back to the ground in late fall and need a dry, cold rest for a couple of months. When the leaves start looking ragged in the fall we dig them all up, sort them for size, store them in boxes in a cool, dry dark place, and don't bother them until late January, early February. They seem to prefer shallow "bulb pans" with a mix of 1/2 soil 1/2 fine bark with the bulbs sitting on top of the mix. Bulbs flower 4-6 weeks after breaking dormancy (and before the leaves emerge)Care: Medium-light and Medium temps while active. Hardy to 20 degrees, many people grow them outdoors in mild climates.
I think these are some of the most magnificent orchids grown in cultivation today. Very large lavender petals and an elongated white frilly lip with brown spots. The flowers are even more spectacular because they bloom when there is still very little foliage so all you see are the flowers!
We have a very limited quantity of these plants each year. When they are gone, we won't have any more available until the fall!

Pleurothallis restrepioides 'Dragonstone' CBR/AOS. 3 well-rooted keikis that are ready to be potted in 3-4" pots with whatever growing mix you prefer. OR well-rooted plant in 2.25" pot.This species has a bushy habit. Not only does it produce new branches from the base of the plant, but it also keikis freely from the base of each leaf creating “rooted branches”. You can leave the keikis on to get a big, bushy plant or you can easily remove them to prune or propagate.Blooms profusely in late winter. 5-10 dime-sized nodding flowers on arching spikes. The flowers are crystalline opaque white with brick-red spots covering the inside and outside of the flower.Care: This species prefers cool-warm temps, shade-indirect light, regular watering, and light feeding year-round. They aren't fond of drying out completely though they are a lot tougher than smaller pleurothallids.
