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. A cute, easy-to-grow Eria (closely related to Dendrobium) species.
The buds develop a wooly exterior (they look like hanging caterpillar coccoons) before opening to reveal a beautiful 1/2", creamy-white flower with distinctive red venation. Nonresupinate (upside down) flowers. Flowers winter-spring.The medium-small plant has pseudobulbs that are almost Hershey Kiss shaped (globose) and are initially covered by a mahogany-colored sheath. Each bulb has 1 or 2 dark green shiny leaves. Great for pots, hanging baskets or mounting.Care: cool-warm temps, bright indirect light, year-round regular watering.
2 bulb, blooming size bare root divisions that are ready to be potted in 4-6" pots with whatever growing mix you prefer.
These are pretty plants with unusual flowers. The flowers are small, white and faintly fragrant. The are borne on a 6-18" spike that carries as many as 50-75 closely packed flowers, 2 spikes per new bulb. Easy to grow under intermediate conditions. These guys grow fast and big, with a growth habit and plant appearance similar to a cymbidium (24-30" tall and very tight clumps of pseudobulbs).
Well-established blooming-size plants mounted on Madrone.Beautiful white, crystalline white petals and sepals with a purple lip. The upper sepal twists and juts forward and resembles a mohawk. Very light fragrance. Spikes produce up to 20 flowers when fully mature (the plants in this listing are seedlings flowering for the first time last year). Terete leaves are 6-8" long. Branches when mature and develops into an open, shrubby plant. Care: Intermediate-warm temps, bright indirect light, regular (every 1-2 days) watering spring-fall with a slightly drier winter rest. Regular light-feeding spring-fall. Best mounted or grown in a basket.
Well-established, blooming size plant in a 3.25" pot.
We bred 2 of our nicest plants to bring you these blooming-sized seedlings. There has been a little bit of diversity in color patterns in these plants but the majority have been solid pink. 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.
1 bulb, 1 lead bare root division of Schomburgkia (Laelia) superbiens alba. This plant came from the same seed pod as 'Don Hubert Cross' CBM/AOS but has never been given a clonal name. It will need to be potted in a 6” pot or basket.
The flowers are pure crystalline-white with a splash of gold on the lip and are 6-8” across. The flower spikes start developing Nov-December and can be as long as 12 feet by the time the 8-15 flowers open in the early spring. As you can see in the pics, it is best grown by folks who have a lot of room! If you live someplace it doesn’t freeze, this plant grows great outdoors.
Care is similar to other Laelias: very bright-full sun, cool-warm temps, and lots of water in the spring-summer and very little water in the fall-winter.
Please note - this plant will ship at the "2 plant" rate because of its size.
My mother plant was the original plant (not a cutting) that was born in 1964! In 2020 we had to refurbish the greenhouse and as a result ended up dividing the plant. Prior to that, the plant has not been repotted since the 60's. There is a picture below of me in front of the plant. Check out the video of us tearing it apart!
Large, well-established in a 1" or 3" net pot. The 3" pot plants have grown into balls the size of a cantaloupe! Most places on the internet sell it by the single strand.
This hard-to-find fern is small-growing and highly suitable for terrariums, vivariums and as houseplants. The round, non-fertile leaves are approx 1/2 inch in diameter and the long, skinny fertile (spore) leaves are about 1.25” long. This plant is epiphytic, so it will do very well mounted with some sphagnum moss. It creeps nicely without being invasive and because of the long rhizome is easy to prune.
Care: medium to high humidity, mild temps, and moderate-low light.
Well-established blooming size plant in a 2" pot. Miniature Masdevallia!
A new mini hybrid from Orchids For The People. Fast-growing and floriferous. The flowers fit on a quarter but are tall and big enough not to go unnoticed. This plant would make a great addition to any mini, cool growing, or pleurothallid collection! It would also look great mounted or in a vivarium.
Care: Cool-intermediate temps, shade- indirect light, regular watering and light feeding year round.
Well-established, blooming-size divisions in a 3.25" pot. This clone of M coccinea has large, round-flat purple flowers measuring 4" tall and 2" wide, held well above the plant on strong stems.
Care: 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.

Well-established blooming-sized plant in a 3.25" pot.
If you are into Masdevallias, or are interested in them, this is a nice, easy-to-grow species.
Beautiful dark mahogany flowers with a yellow throat. The plants get huge but are best kept smaller as the flowers tend to hide in the foliage on short stems. This is a great Masdevallia for mounting, it shows off the flowers. Care: Indirect light, cool-intermediate temps, regular year-round watering and light feeding. Masdevallias should never be allowed to dry out completely.
Well-established blooming size plant in a 3.25" pot.
