Coelogyne mooreana ('Brockhurst' FCC/RHS x Jungle collected clone). Two sizes:
Well-established blooming size 3 bulb division in a 3.25"pot. Please note: we cut all the top 1/2 of all old leaves off. This prevents the plant from flopping around while new roots anchor it.
2.25" seedling
Flower multiple times a year. These plants are somewhat hard to find and we are happy to have them available, if only for a short time! Seedlings are expected to bloom in 12-18 months from blooming.The flowers on these plants are better than 'Brockhurst' FCC/RHS!
Beautiful flower from Vietnam. The crystalline white flowers have an orange throat. Beautiful fragrance! Each spike carries 3-8 flowers. Spring-Fall bloomer.
Care: Cool to warm temps, likes to be watered year-round, and prefers bright indirect light.
Well-established blooming-size plant in a 4" basket.
Flower color, especially in the lip, may vary slightly because these are from seed, not divisions.
This is a beautiful plant with beautiful flowers! The flowers are formed on a pendant spike so it's best to plant this species in a hanging basket or pot to fully enjoy the flowers. The large, long-lasting flowers are approx 2.5-3" across. Petals are a very light rosy pink and the lip is brick red/cinnamon and the flowers are sweetly fragrant. Each spike produces 3-6 flowers successively. Each new flower blooms just as its predecessor is wilting. More mature plants will produce many flower spikes at the same time. It's a non-stop show for months!Care: Cool to hot temps, indirect-bright indirect light, regular year-round watering, and light feeding. The warmer the growing conditions, the more often it should be watered.
Well-established blooming size plant in a 3.25" pot.
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.
Very limited quantities!
Well-established blooming size plant in a 3.25" pot. Well-established blooming size plant in a 3.25" pot. These started as 2 pseudobulb divisions last year and now have at least 1 new pseudobulb since being divided.
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.
Large, well-established blooming size plant in a 3.25" pot.
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.
Well-established, near-blooming seedlings in 4" net pots. The newest leaf on these plants is 8-10" long. These plants should bloom next year if they are taken care of. This plant produces beautiful long (18+"), fleshy, folded, pendant blue-green leaves. The large flowers have a white lip and yellow-green petals. There are usually 3-5 flowers per stem and they are fragrant (citrus/jasmine smell), especially at night. Usually flowers anytime a leaf matures, which can happen multiple times a year. The mother plant was collected in Nicaragua in 1971 (it still has the original tag!) and is a prolific flowerer!This plant needs to be hung in a basket or mounted because of its pendant growth habit. The buyer will need to provide a hanger or a perch where the pendant leaves can hang down.Care: Prefers cool-intermediate temps and bright indirect light. Regular watering and light feeding year-round, with a short dry period in between waterings.
Well-established blooming size plant in a 3.25" pot. Very limited quantities.
If you have intermediate to cold growing conditions you really should own this plant! Large crystalline white flowers that sparkle in sunlight and are golden yellow in the throat. Wonderfully fragrant! Flowers repeatedly late winter through late spring.
Care: Bright, indirect light, regular waterings, and light feedings throughout the year and intermediate to cold temps.
Encyclia pentotis, now known as Anacheilium baculus. Well established 2-3 pseudobulb division with at least one new growth since repotting (for a total of at least 3 pseudobulbs).
I think this is one of the most beautiful flowers in the Encyclia "alliance". To me they look almost angelic. 2 Flowers are produced back to back one a 1-4" stem. Flowers are Approx 2" across. They have a strong, rich fragrance (I'd call it peppery honey/jasmine). This is one of our favorite fragrant species! Blooms late spring-early summer.
Care: Intermediate-warm temps and bright indirect light. Regular watering and fertilizer spring-fall and dry periods and between light waterings with no fertilizer in the winter.
On Sale! Originally $34.99, now onsale for $27.99!
1-2 flowers are produced on new pseudobulbs in the spring and summer. Each white flower is approximately 3" across. The purple lip is covered with white hairs. The flowers are beautiful and the fruity fragrance is amazing!
Care: Intermediate to warm temps, bright indirect light, regular watering, and a light feeding spring-fall with a much drier winter rest period.
One word of caution: these plants do not like to be repotted as they get older (they'll stop flowering for a year or so) so don't do it often, do it gently, and use a really good medium when you do it! Also, this orchid grows warm and needs a dry winter rest after which, one should resume watering and fertilizer as the new growth appears in the spring.
Epigeneium nakaharaei. An interesting and easy-to-grow scrambling miniature. Some now consider this species a Dendrobium. Does well in a pot or basket and loves to be mounted. Very lightly fragrant.
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.
