Please read the How To Order information. There are some changes.

                                             
Habenarias:
If you have never tried Habenarias, these are very easy to grow and extremely rewarding. They make excellent plants to grow in the home. They go dormant after flowering and so there is no humidity problem during the winter. Also, they frequently multiply by forming more than one tuberoid for the following year. Also you have me to help you! I will send a culture sheet with every Habenaria ordered and I'm always available to help you through and problems you may have.
I do not ship Habinarias unless they are in active growth. This can be any time from spring to fall. This way I can guarantee that you will get a healthy plant.

THE FOLLOWING HABENARIAS ARE READY TO SHIP!  ALL ARE $30.00 EACH (plus shipping)
(These are seedlings and although some will flower this year, most will need another year to bloom.)

New Habenaria Listing:
(Please note that some are JUST starting to sprout while others are close to flowering)

Hab. Pink Pearl [Erich’s Pink Thing x Tracey] -Variations in the color pink, reminiscent of the color of the pearls that may occasionally be found in Conch snail shells

Hab. Goldfinch [Tanager [yellow] x crinifers] - crinifera shape, bright yellow lips

Hab. Rosefinch [carnia x crinifera] - fuller shape than the other crinifera hybrids, pink, can have very tall inflorescences

Hab. Saffron Finch [rhodocheila [orange] x crinifera] - crinifera shape, orange lip, can get very tall inflorescence

Hab. Kōtuku [medusa x crinifera] –  white, nice fringe on side lobes, very tall inflorescence

Hab. Hampson [rhodocheila [red] x [roebbelenii] – these have had scarlet or orange-scarlet lips, sepals have varied from near white to pink and green

Hab. Pink Sapphire [Tracey x Spoonbill] - nicely shaped pink flowers

Hab. Spoonbill  (rhodocheila X janellehayneana) -  Oranges to pinks. Some are a nice mauve color.

Hab. erichmichelii - Pink flowers ranging from pastel to bright. Strong spicy fragrance!

Hab. rhodocheila  - Oranges to reds.

Hab. carnea X crinifera  - Soft pinks. I'm not sure what influence crinifera will have as carnea seems to dominate shape. Could be interesting!

Hab. Bright Finch  (Conure X crinifera) - Variable. Yellows through orange tones.

Hab. Saffron Finch (rhodocheila X crinifera) - Shades of yellow from pastel to bright

Hab. Vermillion Flycatcher (Hampson X Summer Tanager) - These will be nice oranges.

Hab. Pink Sapphire (Tracey X Spoonbill) - Large pinks with white sepals.


Pe. = Pectabinaria [Habenaria x Pecteilis] or reciprocal. These are culturally identical to Habenarias.

Pe. White Jade [Hab. carnea f. nivosa x Pe. Perseus] - flowers white, various fringed on side lobe, worth trying more than one

Pe. Pyewacket [Pe. (Perseus x Snow Bird)] –  flowers white, a few with yellow on the lipside lobes with variable fringe, worth trying more than one.

Pe. Angelitas [Pecteilis hawksiana x Hab. crinifera] - white flower, charming, lip varies a little, a few have had shapes more like the crinifera.

Pe. Titania [Pe (Snow Bird x Wow’s White Fairies] - White flowers, fringed sidelobes, nice shape

Pe. Pyewacket (Perseus X Snowbird)  - Pure white flowers with very nice petals. Some will have the fringe from Perseus. Expecting awards!

Pe. Snowbird X Hab. medusa  - Another white. These will be similar to Pyewacket.

Pct. White Jade (Hab. carnea X Pct. Perseus) -Nice full whites.

Pct. Snowy Egret (Perseus X Wow's White Faries) - Nicely fimbriated whites

Pct. Ptarmigan (Snow Bird X medusa) - Another white with varying amounts of fimbriation. Snow Bird is a pristine white and may bring that  quality to Ptarmigan.

Lc. Melody An (Lc. Melody Fair 'Carol' HCC/AOS x L. anceps 'SanBar Oaxaquena' AM/AOS)  We are breeding for semi-alba flower color (white with red lip) and strong stems of 4-5 flowers. These are robust plants that will be easy to grow, have spectacular flower color, and bloom in the early spring.    4.5" pots. Blooming size. $30.00

C. warneri f. alba 'Claire' AM/AOS x C. Victorian Lace 'Diamond Orchids'  We expect that the tubular lip of warneri will be passed to its progeny. A new and unique approach in small growing plants with big white flowers.    4.5" pots. Blooming size. $30.00

Pot. Norma Sue (Pot. Memoria Jim Nickou 'James' HCC/AOS x Blc. Love Sound 'Dogashima' AM/AOS)  Expect this hybrid to produce mostly pure yellow well-presented flowers with great shape and color. Easy to grow and reliable bloomers!   4.5" pots. Blooming size. $30.00

(Pot. Life's Charm 'SVO Round Wonder' X Pot. Telling Lies 'SVO Best')  Beautiful sunset shades here! Plants will be 10" tall and produce 3 - 4 flowers per stem. I'm expecting excellent shape and size.  ​   4.5" pots. Blooming size. $30.00

(Rth. Dream Circle 'Santa Barbara #18 X Rlc. Carolina Golden D'or 'Lennette #5')  Expect sunset to peach tones from this cross. The plants should be compact stature with 3-5 flowers per stem.  2" pots. 2-3 years to bloom. $15.00

(Ctt. Final Blue 'Royal Purple' BM/JOGA X self)  Final Blue is a very compact Cattleya of coerluea color. The parentage is 75% C. walkeriana. I am expecting more light blue flowers with dark coerluean blue lips. If you like blues you'll love this!  2" pots. 2-3 years to bloom. $15.00

(Rlc. Jennifer Off 'Joan' HCC/AOS X Rlc. Cornerstone 'Fine Circle')  These will be standard size Cattleyas with 7"+ flowers. I expect dark lavenders with purple lips. Some may have a bit of splash petal from the Jennifer Off parent.  2" pots. Probably 3 years to bloom if grown well.  $15.00.


Catasetinae:
Catasetums and their relatives are very easy to grow and bloom. During the growing season they like Cattleya conditions with good fertilizing and enough water to stay moist at all times. As fall nears and temperatures begin to cool fertilizing is stopped and water decreased until usually by New Years I stop watering and try to keep the plants cool (50-58 degrees).

These are seedlings in 3" pots that have 1 to 2 years to bloom. Price is $15.00
​
Clo. White Magic (Cl. warczewitzii 'SVO' X Ctsm. Orchidglade 'Davey Ranches AM/AOS  Full shaped flowers white to light green, some with spotting. Good flower longevity.

(Ctsm. Double Down 'BPYL' X Ctsm. Joseito's Moonlight 'Dark Petals Yellow Lip')  'BPYL' means Black Petals Yellow Lip. These will flower early in the season and will be heavilly influenced by Ctsm. tenebrosum. Should flower 2-3 times a year.

(Ctsm. Mem. Dorothy Wells 'Silver & Gold' X Ctsm. Diane's Dots 'By Far the Best')  These will be compact growers due to tigrinum on both sides. The color combination is white and yellow and is rare.

Cl. russelliana  Ice green flowers with darker striping. Russelliana is the largest of Catasetums and can produce up to 3 spikes per bulb, each with up to 40 flowers! Early summer blooming.

(Ctsm. Penang 'Doubloons' X Ctsm. Richard Fulford 'SVO')  These will be different! Penang produces 20 large, yellow flowers several times a year. Richard Fulford is Orchidglade X lucis which produces 15-20 green and white flowers on an upright inflorescense. 

(Ctsm. Melana Davison 'Hoorah' X Ctsm. John C. Burchett 'Ursa Major' FCCAOS)  I expect dark burgany flowers with some spotting possible. Plant size will be compact.

(Ctsm. Melana Davison 'Bomb Shell' X Ctsm. Orchidglade 'Davey Ranches' AM/AOS)  This clone of Melana Davison produces red flowers on a white lip. 'Davey Ranches' will introduce spotting and improve the form. Should flower 2-3 times a year on compact plants.

Ctsm. pileatum  These will be the green form of pileatum. It's almost impossible to believe how large these flowers are until you experiance them first hand! Both parents produce 13-15 flowers per inflorescense.

(Ctsm. Dentigrianum 'SVO Excellance' X Ctsm. Portagee Star 'Brian Lawson's Sunrise' HCC/AOS)  Dentigrianum is a star in miniature matasetum breeding combining the two smallest species in the genus (denticulatum X tigrinum). Combined with Portagee Star I'm expecting yellow flowers, some overlaid with red, and red spotting on a compact plant.

(Ctsm. sanguineum 'Monkey Face' X Ctsm. spitzii 'Red 48')  Ctsm. sanguineum produces flowers that are heavily marked red and a blood red lip on an upright spike. The spitzii used is the red form and bloomed with up to 48 flowers per inflorescense. Both parents flower late in the season.


Masdevallias:
A note on Masdevallias: Many who try Masdevallias have been unsuccessful. These plants generally need cool temperatures and high humidity. Air movement is also necessary because cool, damp conditions are breeding grounds for bacteria and fungi. Even the warmth tolerant species and hybrids need to be grown with these conditions as much as possible. If you grow these beauties in the house be sure to use the “double potting” technique. All of the below plants are divisions and are blooming size.

Masd. Marguerite 'Lehua 12 Mile' AM/AOS  One of the best of this wonderful hybrid! The flowers are orange heavily overlaid with red and highlighted with purple hairs. This is a large growing plant. Blooms prolifically in spring and sporadically other times of year. (I-C temps).  4.5" pots and mature.  $45.00

Masd. Othello 'Wade's orchids'  Unlike most clones of Othello, the flower on 'Wade's Orchids' opens very nicely. I have had doubts as to its identification but the red and orange colors and characteristic second sequential flower on almost every spike are are consistant with the expectations of Othello. (Intermediate temp.)  2" pot Blooming size.  $25.00

Masd. Ziegler's Love 'Golden Gate' FCC/AOS  This is a very distinctive and beautiful flower! Large pure white flowers with light ribs and yellow caudae. This blooms several times a year for me (Intermediate temps).  2" pots Blooming size.  $25.00

I do have occasional divisions of awarded and award quality Masdevallias that are not listed. Please call if you are interested.


Bulbophyllums:
A note on Bulbophyllums: This is the largest genus in the Orchid family comprising over 2600 species. There is very little work done on hybrids but results are promising. The main requirement for these is humidity. At least 60% with optimum of 80%. Temp. is intermediate - warm.Another important consideration is air movement. Sphagnum moss (only 2" deep) is the preferred potting media. I have begun to use fine bark as a top dressing to prevent algae from forming on the moss. Good water quality is important and the plants like to be kept very moist in the growing season. As the weather cools lighten up a bit on watering but do not allow to dry. Bulbos like light in the Phalaenopsis to Oncidium range.

Bulb. Elizabeth Ann 'Buckleberry' FCC/AOS  This is a cross of rothschildianum X longissimum. Rosettes of flowers are produced in the fall with fused sepals up to a foot long. The background is off white with pink stripes.. Makes a good specimen plant!
4" pots  $30.00
"
​Bulb. falcatum 'Standing Tall' AM/AOS  This is an incredible spring blooming species. It is a member of the section Megaclinium where the flowers are borne alternately on a flattened flower spike called a "rachis". In this clone, the rachis is garnet red and the flowers are bright yellow! Also, falcatum has the wonderful habit of branching freely which makes for a wonderful specimen plant.  These are divisions from the origonal plant.
4" pots  $30.00

Bulb. Louis Sander 'Byron' (longissimum X ornitissimum)  This is a very reliable hybrid that blooms in the fall. The flowers are nearly a foot long and soft yellow with pink striping. Older plants become very floriferous with the flowering period lasting a couple months!  Blooming size in 3" pots.  $25.00

Bulb. wendlandianum  This is in the cirropetalum section and has flowers of a similar shape to longissimum but not as large (usually around 6"-7"). Lateral sepals are yellow with dark red stripes becoming solid red for the later half of the sepals. The petals and dorsal sepal are yellow and red with dark red hairs especially on the dorsal. This is a wonderful species that is very easy to bloom.  Blooming size in 3" pots.  $25.00

Miscellaneous species and hybrids:

Gomesa radicans  (formerly Stigmatostylix)  These members of the Oncidium alliance bloom early fall on spikes of small white flowers. they are lightly fragrant and very easy to grow. They are also good candidates for growing under lights as they don't get over 6" tall. Very tolerant of conditions and very reliable.
$25.00  3 available  Flowering size in 3" pots.

Maxillaria variabilis 'Dark Eyes'  Max. variabilis  is commonly seen with yellow flowers. This one is intense blood red! It is just as easily grown as the other forms and a reliable winter bloomer that will continue to send flowers for 2 months on mature plants.
$20.00  4 available in 2" pots. Blooming size.  (available starting June)

Restrepia (elegans X dodsonii)  You rarely see hybrid Restrepias for sale. I suspect one reason is the physical process of pollenation is so small that it's almost impossible! These are nice clumps of plants that will produce flowers with an orange background covered with red spotting. Flowering size in 3" clay pots.  $30.00

Stelis morganii 'Wade's Orchids' (Awarded CCM/AOS of 85 pts. on Feb. 3, 2022) This is one of my all time favorite orchids! This is a miniature orchid in the Pleurothallis complex. The flowers are chartruese and only about 1/8" across. I have owned this plant about 10 years and it has never stopped flowering! Even in a 2" pot it is not unusual to have hundreds of flowers the entire year. Grow intermediate and moist with high humidity.    PHOTO
