Maxillaria tenuifolia
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.

Care: Cool-warm, bright indirect light, regular watering, and light feeding throughout the year with slight drying between waterings.

Panarica (Encyclia) brassavolae
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.

The flower pics are the parent plants but we can only speculate on what these seedlings' flowers will look like. The plant picture is representative of the plant that will be shipped to the buyer.

Laelia anceps

Great size in the flowers (not award-winning huge, but then neither is the price) and the plants are stout and vigorous. Flower spikes are 2-4' tall and produce 4-6 flowers each. Flowers smell faintly of vanilla, especially after being watered. Care: Bright indirect light, cool-warm temps (can be grown cooler than cattleya), regular watering and light feeding spring-fall with a moderately dry rest period in the winter.
