We grow lots of intermediate growing orchids! It's a perfect fit for our coastal Northern California weather. Nighttime temps for these plants range from 55°F-62°F and daytime temps from 75°F-85°F.
We've done the chore of deflasking, all you have to do is pot them up! Well-established seedlings. This is a complete flask (30+ plants) that was compotted in the March 2025.
Great for retailers or orchid societies!
Angraecum compactum flowers are fragrant--spicy to citrusy smelling!Care: Prefers cool-warm temps and bright indirect light. Water promptly once the media has dried.
Well-established size plant in a 3.25" pot. One of our in-house hybrids! We have been impressed with this cross's vigor and ability to flower at a very young age. Because of the plant's height, it ships at the "2 plant" rate.
These plants will stay compact and relatively small (we expect them to max out at about a foot tall). Produces 1-3 1" pink flowers at each node on leafless, mature canes. The older, leafless canes produce flowers for several years so the show just keeps getting better! This plant does well mounted, in hanging baskets or in a pot.
Care: cool-hot (doesn't mind slightly cooler temps in the winter), bright indirect light, wet spring-fall with regular feeding, and a drier winter rest period.
Well-established, blooming-size plant in a 3.25" pot.If you like Dendrobiums, particularly Australian Dendrobiums, you have to have this plant! Flowers are almost identical to D speciosum in color, shape, fragrance, and size but the plant is much more compact. Plus, it is a much more reliable bloomer!Care: Bright indirect light, warm summers and cool winters, plenty of water and regular feeding spring-summer with a drier rest period in the winter.
Well-established blooming size plant in a 3.25" pot.This is one of the first orchids I grew as a kid in southern CA and is still one of the hardiest and most forgiving orchids you can grow! D kingianum stays very compact and is happy pretty much anywhere that receives moderately bright light.This species flowers late winter/early spring and produces an abundance of fragrant, long-lasting, dime-sized purple and white flowers.If you want to try your hand at orchids, start here!Care: Bright indirect light, moist and warm-hot in the summer, cool and drier in the winter. Light, regular fertilizing spring-late summer
Near blooming size seedling (12-18 months) in a 4" basket.
This robust and easy-to-grow Dendrobium is a beauty when in bloom! The fragrant flowers develop in clusters along the mature, leafless stems (which can reach 2-3 feet in length). The flowers have pink petals and sepals with an orange-red lip. This species flowers randomly throughout the year. Flowers last 2-5 weeks. Sweetly fragrant flowers!
Care: This orchid prefers intermediate to warm temperatures, bright indirect light, and good air circulation. Watering and light feeding year-round, but allow the pot to dry out slightly between waterings.
Dendrobium Rainbow Dance (D Kurenai x D unicum). Small, well-established blooming size plant in a 3.25" pot.Sturdy, fast-growing, and showy, this plant puts on a real show from February to April with a huge flush of 1.5" purple and white flowers. The lip is white with a little purple blush and vivid purple veins. Flowers last 6-8 weeks!This is a great plant for beginners and veterans alike.Care: Bright indirect light year round. Regular watering and light feeding and intermediate-warm temps spring-fall and a cool, drier rest period in the winter.
Well-established blooming size plant in a 3.25" pot.
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.
Well-established blooming size plant in a 3.25" pot.
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.
Well-established blooming size plant in a 3.25" pot.
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.
This is one of the bigger-flowered Dendrochilum species. Each long, gracefully arching inflorescence produce up to 30 flowers each. This plant is quite a site when it reaches even close to specimen size when blooming! Generally blooms late winter-spring.
Care: intermediate-warm temps, bright indirect light, and plenty of water year-round.
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.
