Well-established (potted in 4/22) plants with 2 leads in 4" baskets.The nickel-sized flowers are quite pretty and abundant on larger plants. Each flower spike will produce 5-15 flowers and they can last several months.Rarely available, this hardy, rambling Encyclia relative becomes a big plant in no time. For this reason, this species is best grown in hanging baskets so the new growths can envelop the basket and then continue to send new growth out into space! I do not recommend this plant for benchtop growing because it will crawl out of its pot and into every other pot near it.Care: Cool-intermediate temps, bright indirect light, regular watering, and light feeding spring-fall with a drier rest period in the winter.

These are easy, fast-growing orchids. Each spike holds 8-10 flowers in an umbel that looks like part of a daisy. The fringed lips are hinged and move around in the slightest breeze. The entire umbel is approx. 2" across. Blooms twice a year, summer and winter.

Here's one for you mini and Bulbo growers! A beautiful plant with large (for the size of the plant) interesting flowers. The sepals and petals are clear, almost see-through, with purple stripes and tiny hairs along the margins. The lip is purple with a purple fringe on the margin.

Well-established blooming size seedling plant in a 3.25" pot. These plants are ready for mounting or hanging baskets (either is preferable to a pot for adult plants). Very Limited!The flowers of this species are unusual, even for a Bulbophyllum! Each flower is almost 3" long from top to bottom. The maroon background is darkest at the top and highlighted by yellow spots (it resembles snakeskin to me) and slowly fades to white on the bottom sepals. It's beautiful and weird at the same time! Flowers in the winter.Care: Prefers cool-intermediate temps, Indirect light, and moderate year-round food and water.

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.

Large, well-established Dendrobium prenticei (syn Dockrillia lichenastrum) plant on a 5" madrone log. No strings attaching the plant to the log-only roots!
If you are interested in miniature orchids this is a great, easy-to-grow species. The flowers are tiny but interesting if you have good eyes or a magnifying glass. The leaves and growth pattern are the main draw of this plant. The pointed, cylindrical leaves are reminiscent of a succulent and are spaced very closely together.
Care: Bright indirect light, intermediate-hot temps. Regular watering and light feeding spring-fall with a dry winter.
Well-established blooming size plant in a 2" 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.
Well-established blooming size plant in a 2.25" 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 4" 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.
