Very hardy plants that produce flowers throughout the year (Whenever new growths reach blooming size). Pleasantly fragrant, especially late in the day and early evening.
Care: Intermediate to warm, bright indirect light, regular watering, and light feeding throughout the year with a drier rest period in Winter.
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.
An Orchids for the People in-house hybrid!A very nice compact, upright, easy-to-grow orchid. The flowers are 1.5" wide with yellow petals and a wide, pointed white lip. The petals, sepals, and lip all have purple spots radiating from the center of the flower. The flower spikes produce 3-8 flowers. Thiese are seed-grown, but the flowers have been fairly consistant.Care: Bright indirect light, intermediate-warm temps, regular watering, and light feeding spring-fall, with a drier rest period and no food in the winter.
Brassocattleya Valencia Beauty (Brassavola nodosa x Cattleya Interglossa). Well-established blooming-size plants in 3.25" pots. Substantial price breaks if you purchase through our Wholesale & Volume Collection! (Purchases from the Wholesale & Volume Collection may not combined with orders from other collections)This is a remake of Brassocattleya Valencia Beauty using 2 great, large-flowered parents. These plants are seed-grown seedlings, not mericlone plants, so each one is unique. If you like to get your plants judged, this is your chance to give a plant a clonal name! Also pictured are a trio of siblings, so you can see the diversity so far in this hybrid. Plus, the flowers are relatively large in proportion to the compact growth habit of the plant.Care: Bright indirect light, cool-warm temps, regular watering and fertilizer spring-fall, and let dry between light waterings in the winter.
Well-established blooming size plant in 3.25" pot.
These vigorous, fast-growing hybrids have produced really lovely flowers! Each flower spike produces 2-4, 3" flowers that look almost identical to E. brassavolae except they are bluish-purple. Flowers late summer. Because these plants were raised from seeds and are not mericloned, the flowers will vary slightly from plant to plant.
Our hybrids are created from superior plants that we have acquired over the years. We breed for vigor, quality, and size.
Care: bright-very bright indirect light, intermediate-warm temps, regular watering and feeding spring-fall. A rest period in the winter is advisable with less water and no food.
Large, well-established blooming size division in a 3.25" pot.
Flower spikes develop in the fall-winter and carry 1-3 silver quarter-sized creamy yellow flowers. The lip is very dark brick-red and is hairy.
Care: Cool-warm temps, shade-indirect light and regular year-round watering and light feeding.
Well-established, near-blooming size plants recently repotted into 3.25” pots. Dendrobium anceps is an interesting epiphytic species native to Southeast Asia, including regions like Thailand, Laos, and Myanmar.The leaves are generally lance-shaped to narrowly elliptic and are somewhat fleshy. They typically have a smooth, shiny surface and a dark green color. The leaves are arranged alternately along the stem. Overall, the leaves contribute to the plant's interesting appearance even when it isn’t in bloom. 3/4` to 1` flowers are pale greenish yellow with a red spotted lip; blooms successively winter-spring.
Care: Bright indirect light, regular watering and light feeding spring-fall and benefits from a period of cooler temperatures and reduced watering in the winter months to mimic its natural seasonal variations.

One of the bigger Dendrochilums, the flower inflorescence can be almost 2 feet long with over a hundred small, fragrant yellow flowers.Care: Intermediate to warm temps, partial shade, regular watering and light feeding year round.

This is an unusual Dendrochilum. Instead of being a "clumper" like most in the genus, this plant is definitely a "runner"! Will form large tangled mats that make it great for a mount or basket.
Long chains of beautiful, medium-sized (for a dendrochilum!) bright yellow flowers with white in the throat. Flowers smells like orange creamsicles!Care: Easy to grow plants that like cool-warm temps, indirect light-shade, regular year round watering and light feeding. This species thrives on neglect in a greenhouse.

Dendrochilums are often called 'grass orchids' for their leaves or 'fox tail orchids' for their beautiful displays of long, many-flowered spikes. D steophyllum is a medium-small (6" tall) sized Dendrochilum with spikes that will carry 40-50 white flowers. They tend to bloom multiple times a year, summer-winter.Care: Cool-warm temps, indirect light, and regular watering, and light feeding year-round.
Blooming size plant in a 3.25" pot.
These plants are often called Grass Orchids (because of the leaves) or Fox Tail Orchids (because of the inflorescence). I like these tiny plants for a number of reasons. They are easy to grow and get large, for a miniature, fast. A specimen-size plant fits easily in a 3.25" pot. Our specimen-size plant produces hundreds of tiny arching inflorescences in flower at the same time! That's thousands of tiny flowers open at the same time!
Care tip: These plants should never dry out completely.
Blooming size plant in a 3" net pot. This species produces flowers that truly have a monkey face (I actually see baboon)! Most Dracula species have more cryptic color patterns, but not this one! The white flowers with red tepals really stand out. The main body of the flower is 1.5" and the overall length is 4.5". Not only that, each flower spike will produce 2-5 flowers in succession over a period of a couple of months. The 4" flower spikes will emerge from around the margin of the plant as well as out of the sides and bottom of the basket and the flowers face down. Must be hung because of the flowering habit.These plants are wonderful to own if you can give them what they want.
Care: Cool, moist, and shady is the mantra for Draculas. We give our plants lots of light in the winter and lots of shade in the summer.
The nice thing about this group is if you can grow one Drac you can pretty much grow them all. Like their cousins the Masdevallias, when these plants are happy they grow like weeds and are prolific flowerers.
