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.
Please note that plant may not currently be in spike or flower when shipped.
This species produces very small (about the size of a dime) flowers that truly have a monkey face! Flowers late winter for us and a plant the size of the one in this listing can produce 20-40 flower spikes all at once. Not only that, each flower spike will produce 2-5 flowers in succession over a period of a couple of months. The short flower spikes emerge around the margin of the plant and the flowers face down. When seen from below it looks like a pack of mini monkeys staring down at you! Best if hung up in a basket but this is one of the few Dracula species that can be grown in a pot on a table.These plants are wonderful to own if you can give them what they want.
Care: Minimum low temp of 46° F and a high of around 85°. Anything over 80°, keep the plant really wet. We like to water them morning and evening at least a couple of times a week in the summer. Folks with greenhouses that have swamp coolers grow them directly in front of the cooler. We give our plants lots of light in the winter and lots of shade in the summer.
Well-established blooming size plant in a 2.25" pot. This is a unique and interesting Dracula. The first thing that stands out is the fact that it sends flower spikes up, not straight down, which is rare for this genus. The second thing you notice is the flower itself. The flower hangs down from the spike and the sepals are fused into a lantern-like shape. This, along with the bright orange color, draws a person in for a closer look. Then you notice the inside of the flower is completely covered in fuzzy hair! All in all, a neat addition to any cool to intermediate collection.Dracula sodiroi is also easier to grow than most Draculas because, since the flower spike grow upwards, you can grow it in a pot rather than a basket. This makes it easier to keep moist which, along with high humidity and good air movement, is essential for keeping this entire genus happy and healthy.
Dracuvallia Lucifer (Dracula vampira × Masdevallia veitchiana) . Near blooming size divisions in a 2.25" pot.Beautiful large gold and orange flowers, orange from the veitchiana parent and faint stripes from the vampira parent. These plants are divisions of siblings so there will be slight variation in the flower color. The flowers tend to nod a bit so they are best displayed as a hanging plant slightly above eye level. Flowers summer-fall.Care: Cool to intermediate temps, shade to indirect light, regular year-round watering and light feeding. Do not let dry out! Prefers high humidity.
Well-established blooming size plant in a 2.25" 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.
Well-established blooming size seedlings in 3.25" pots. This is an in-house hybrid and is available exclusively from Orchids For The People. First blooms for this cross came in early 2025. 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.
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 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.
