Dryadella hirtzii
Large, well-established blooming size plant in a 3.25" pot. A plant this size will typically produce 20-30 flowers when it blooms. Very limited quantities! A small, fast-growing plant that flowers repeatedly late fall-spring. Great for terrariums, vivariums, small grow spaces, and anyone who loves minis! This is a lovely miniature species! Tiny Masdevallia-like flowers that have a light green background with red spots. Rarely seen for sale and is a great addition to any Pleurothallid or cool climate collection. Care: Best kept on the cool side (but doesn't mind intermediate temps) and moist.

Epidendrum coronatum x ellipticum
Big, chunky, well-established, flowering-sized plants in 3.25" pots. This new cross is another great plant for beginning orchid growers! This is a compact reed stem-type epidendrum that produces nickel-sized, purplish-pink flowers. Reed stem Epidendrums are a wonderful addition to any orchid collection because of their ease of growing, their very long flowering cycle, and their massive variety of colors. Produces a flower spike at the top of new growths which continues to elongate and produce flowers sequentially from bottom to top over a period of months!We're not quite sure how tall these plants will get but they seem to be on the "compact" size for reed stem Epis. They have already flowered at less than 18" tall. Care: Very easy to grow. Cool-Warm temps,regular watering and light feeding spring-summer with a drier rest period and no food in the winter. Essentially the same as any other reed stem epi.

Epidendrum coronatum x Encyclia cordigera
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
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.

Laelia anceps
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.

Maxillaria arbuscula
Well-established blooming size plant in a 3.25" pot. This is a cute little orchid species that is easy and fast growing. Produces button-sized white flowers covered with red dots. Flowers randomly year round, sometimes with a few flowers and other times with a large flush of flowers. Even though it is considered a miniature, this species branches a lot and specimen plants can quickly turn into a bush the size of a soccer ball. This plant is great in pots, hanging baskets, mounted or in a terrarium. Care: Cool-intermediate temps, indirect sunlight and regular year round watering and light feeding.

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.
