Well-established near-blooming size seedlings in 3.25" pots. This is an in-house hybrid and is available exclusively from Orchids For The People. These plants should bloom in 12-18 months if cared for properly.The parent flowers are pictured, as we have not seen blooms yet with this cross of 2 interesting species. Epi coronatum is a medium-sized plant with large (for an Epi, 1.5+") creamy white, fragrant flowers. Enc cordigera is a medium-sized plant with 3" dark purple fragrant flowers. We have no idea what the flowers will look like but are hoping for rather large, fragrant flowers on a fairly compact plant.The plant looks like a reed stem epidendrum but with very fleshy, almost succulent leaves. Growing conditions: intermediate-warm temps, bright indirect light, regular watering, and light feeding throughout the growing season (spring-fall) with a slightly dry rest period in the winter.
Epidendrum neoporpax. Well-established blooming size plant in a 3" net pot.
We love this plant! It mats into a specimen in a short time. Flowers several times a year and we call it the "baboon butt" flower for obvious (to me :) reasons. This is a great orchid for vivariums and small growing spaces!
Care: Easy to grow in moderately bright to partial shade conditions. Like to be mounted either vertically or horizontally. Moderate water all year.
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.
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 plant in a 2" pot. Miniature Masdevallia!
A new mini hybrid from Orchids For The People. Fast-growing and floriferous. We deflasked these plants in the fall of 2021 and already they are producing 4-8 flowers! 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.

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.
