Please read the How To Order information.

 Mottled Leaf Paphiopedilums (Maudiae type):         
I have a large number of Paphiopedilums that were bred by Lehua Orchids. These are all mature, blooming sized plants and more crosses than I can list. Until they're gone, the price is $35.00 each or $30.00 each if you buy 2 or more. You can request a particular color or even a particular cross. I will let you know if I have them or not. If you allow me to pick I will choose plants based on plant size and multiple leads - in other words, I pick the best for you!

Catasetinae:
If you've never tried these, now is the perfect time! This is a mix of Catasetum and Clowesetum (Clowesia X Catasetum) in a range of colors and sizes. Make sure to fertilize these well during the growing season. That will determine the number of flowers and flower spikes produced. If you need help with culture please get in touch. All these are flowering size and flower spikes are beginning to form on some of the crosses now! These are all in 4 1/2" pots and priced at $35.00 each! Photos and descriptions are curtesy of our friends at Sunset Valley Orchids.
​

​(Clo. Cheryl Erins 'SVO' x Ctsm. Lydia Colon 'White Gold')  We expect full-shaped flowers with wide petals, some will be pure white, others white and spotted red. Expect multiple inflorescences and upward of 20 flowers produced twice a season. Since this is a Clowesetum, flower longevity will be 3-4 weeks.

(Ctsm. Norm Tupper 'SVO Snow Leopard' x Ctsm. Diana's Dots 'SVO')  There is a lot of influence of tigrinum in the breeding of this hybrid, ensuring excellent flower shape. The flowers of the progeny will range from white to yellow, and some will be spotted. These are compact growing plants blooming 2-3 times a season. 


(Ctsm. Portagee Star 'Brian Lawson's Sunrise' HCC/AOS x Ctsm. Fonseca Alfaro 'Yellow Lip')  Here we are expecting excellent flower shape, 20 or more blooms from plants producing 2 inflorescences per bulb with a twice a year bloom habit. Flower colors will be yellow, and finely spotted burgundy, with flat yellow lips. 

(Ctsm. Diana's Dots 'SVO' x Ctsm. Double Tiger 'Xtra Full and Flat')  In the breeding of this hybrid, both parents contain Ctsm. tigrinum. It is dominant for shape and wide petals, creating full-shaped flower forms. The expectation for these is white flowers with lots of spotting on yellow lips, on mini-Catasetum plants. You won't get tired of seeing these shapely flowers. 

(Ctsm. Brandon Kenwood 'SVO' x Ctsm. Richard Fulford 'SVO' FCC/AOS)  Both have similar flower shape, flower count, and long inflorescences of 18-20 large flowers. We have been working on making this type of hybrid for 6-7 years. We are capitalizing on the doubling up of the upright inflorescence habit of lucis. We want tall flower spikes that stick straight up! The large flowers will be in colors of yellow and spotted red, and a few might come out green. These will be big plants with the most impressive flowering imaginable.

Ctsm. Diana's Dots (Ctsm. tigrinum 'Wyche' HCC/AOS x Ctsm. Orchidglade 'Jack of Diamonds' AM/AOS)
The first time we made this cross it produced so many great flowers we started naming the cultivar names 'The Best', 'Super Good', 'By Far the Best'! Check out these: PHOTO, PHOTO, PHOTO.  One exceptional stand out was awarded to R. Hydzik for his plant of 'Yosemite Sam' FCC/AOS   This is the exact remake!


Habenarias:
Habenarias and Pectabinarias are coming out of dormancy extremely late this year. Finally I have a listing for you. If you are new to growing these please be aware that they go totally dormant after blooming. Dormancy for these genera do not mean a cool period rather it is a witholding of water. All plants are seedlings and are in 2 1/2" to 3" pots and priced at $30.00 each unless marked otherwise. They should bloom this year or next year. Some of these are very limited. Supplies are very limited! ​I may have others available if/when they sprout.

Habinaria crinifera  Crinifera is an easy species to grow and often forms clumps of tuberoids. The flowers are white with a 3-lobed lip which appears like arms and legs, thus the common name of the doll orchid.

Habinaria humistrata  This is very temperature tolerant. Humistrata is green and white. The side lobes of the lip can either be angled at about a 45 degree angle or at times displayed perpendicular to the rest of the flower.

Hab. Rotan (roebbelenii X Tanager)  Nicely shaped with some bicolors. The lip can be yellow through gold and orange, even to scarlet.

Hab. Bright Canary (Canary X Spoonbill)  Lip colors yellow, orange, gold, or scarlet.

Hab. Kat's Moustache (Kat's Whiskers X medusa)  The first one to flower was white with a red claw from medusa. The side lobes of the lip are fringed and some are long like medusa!

Hab. Zircon (regnieri X Spoonbill)  Nice full shaped flowers. Mostly pink but the lips on come can be scarlet, pink, or salmon

Hab. Pegasus (carnea X medusa)  These are divisions from one of Leon's plants. Flowers are very pale pink.

Hab. Flamingo (erichmichelii X carnea)  Only 2 available. Very full flowers from the carnea parent. Can be fragrent.

Pe. Pekin (Pe. Perseus X Pect. hawksiana)  Sepals and petals white. Lip mostly white but some are yellow.

$30.00 mounted plants. Blooming size.

Bulbophyllum frostii (I-W)  This is one of my favorite plants! This is commonly called The Dutch Shoe Orchid because that's how the flowers look. This miniature produces thick dark green leaves about 2" long formed several on a stem. The flowers are about 3/4" long and have a cream to light green base color covered with burgundy spots. Blooming size is spring through late summer and can flower more than once a year. These need a bit more light than most Bulbos and typically grow a bit drier.
$35.00 mounted. Flowering size.

$30.00 mounted. Flowering size.

Dinema polybulbon 'Golden Gate' (C-W)  This miniature in the Cattleya family is a true gem! It is a very easy growing rambling plant less than an inch tall that is usually sending its short roots into the air. For this reason it's virtually impossible to keep it in a pot. Flowering season is late fall through winter. The flowers have brown sepals and petals and a white lip divided by a midrib. Even though they are produced one per stem they can become very floriferous with hundreds of flowers on a mature plant! Easy to grow and always rewarding!
$30.00 mounted. Flowering size.

Pteroceras semiteretifolium  (C-W)  This species is from Veitnam. I'm seeing reports from warm to cool for their temperature requirements. I seem to be doing well at intermediate temperatures. As the name implies, the leaves on this species are terete. The plant is a miniature and seldom gets over 3" tall. Flowering can occur any time. Blooms are produced singly on the stems are usually have a few open at a time. The flowers are creamy white with yellow and red markings on the lip and are about 3/4" across. It's a beautiful plant and very desireable.

Coelogyne corembosa (C-I)  This is a small, late spring to summer blooming Coelogyne from Nepal, India and China. It prefers to be kept cool. The flowers are pristine white with yellow and brown markings on the lip. I've seen reports that this species is intolerant of old media.
$30.00 in 2" pots. Flowering size (These are beginning to flower now (mid June)).

Bulbojphyllum sandersonii (W-C)  One of the bulbophyllums of the megaclinium section. The plants of this section are from the western part of central Africa and have inflorescences that are compressed laterally. I call them pea pods. These inflorescences in sandersonii are green, sometimes purple spotted. These are easy growing Bulbos.
$25.00 in 3" pots. These are divisions of my plant that should flower within a year.

Bulb. wendlandianum (W-I)   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   4" pots  $35,00

Gomesa radicans (W-I)  This is a small growing relative of Oncidiums. It's an easy to grow species. Although I offer these potted they will do best mounted as they quickly form a mat. The leaves are grass-like. Inflorescences may have up to 15 flowers. The prominent feature of the flowers are the white lips. The sepals and petals are light green and the column is dark red.
$25.00 in 3" pots. Blooming size.


Hybrids:

Bulbophyllum J.M. Guilloty 'Wade's Orchids'  (annandalei X frostii) This flowers multiple times through the year with up to 5 flowers per inflorescence. The flowers are off white with red stripes on all the segments. This was one of my first Bulbos and is one of my favorites.
$30.00 in 3" pots. Blooming size divisions.

Bulbophyllum Elizabeth Ann 'Buckleberry' FCC/AOS (longissimum X rothschildianum)  It's hard to go wrong with this! It does well potted or mounted. Like most Bulbophyllums, the roots on this are fairly short so if potted, it should be in a shallow pot. For me, this is an early fall bloomer. It presents up to 10 flowers on an arching spike. The flowers have a light pink base color with darker pink striping. The length of the flowers are 7" to 8". The lateral sepals are fused on the top half and then open to long "tails". As small plants, they are very pretty but become breathtaking as they become specimens.
$35.00 in 4" pots. Blooming size.

Rlc. Jennifer Off 'Joan' HCC/AOS X Rlc. Cornerstone 'Fine Circle AM/AOS  This is a stanndard size Cattleya. Jennifer Off 'Joan' is a lavender splash petal with flowers about 6" across. The lip is dark red-purple. Rlc. Cornerstone is one of the best standard lavender Cattleyas I've ever seen. It's 6" across and very dark with an even darker lip. The center of the lip is dark yellow. This will result in exceptionally fine form and darker lavender than normal. About 50% will have some degree of splashing on the petals.
$25.00 in 3" pots  Probably 2 years from blooming.

Bulbophyllum George Gallipeau  (lasiochilum X longissimum)  Because of the lasiochilum parent this is a compact hybrid. It will do well mounted or potted in a shallow container. The petals and dorsal sepal are mahogany. The lateral sepals are separate and light pink with faint darker spotting. Give this higher light than most Bulbophyllums.
$25.00 in 3" pots.  Blooming size.

Coelogyne Odyssey  (carinata X odoardi)  These are growing very well for me. They do need to be moist almost all the time. I'm expecting 6 or 7 olive to brown flowers per arching inflorescence. the lip is white heavily overlaid with chesnut brown. An added attraction is that they will be fragrant.
$30.00 in 3" pots.  1-2 years till flowering.

Bc. Yellow Bird  (Bc. Richard Mueller X B. nodosa)  Yellow Bird has been a very popular Cattleya hybrid. It is tolerant of conditions and flowers easily. Because the rhizomes are so short a good sized plant can be grown in a relatively small pot. The flowers are yellow overcast with salmon which fades after a week. The lip is like nodosa but yellow with red spots of various sizes. This is a great Cattleya to grow in the home, under lights, or in the greenhouse.
$25.00 in 3" pots. Near flowering size.

Rth. Dream Circle 'Santa Barbara #18' X  Rlc. Golden D'or 'Lennette #5'  These will produce plants about 12" tall with 4-5 flowers per spike. The first one that bloomed for me was a yellow and orange sunset coloration. These have the possibility of flowering more than once per year. These will be very desirable!!!
$25.00 in 3" pots. About one year from flowering.

Enc. Cinnamon Girl (Prov.) Enc. (guatemalensis X Mary Motes)  This is one of my hybrids. The sepals and petals are tan with darker stripes. The lip looks like a skirt! White base color with a center of pink and edged with green and ruffled. The flower spike is branched and I'm hoping up to 25 flowers on a mature plant. The plant size is compact - only reaching 8"-10" tall.
Flowering size plants in 3" pots.  $25.00


Lycaste Buttercup  (Lyc. Corrimal 'Malcolm' AM/AOS x Lyc. Suave 'Perfect Pixie')  These Lycastes will stay small with 6 to 8 flowers per bulb. The flowers will be a bright yellow with some retaining the red blush of Corrimal.
$35.00 in 4 1/2" pots. Blooming size.

Lycaste Belle Ribicoff
 (Lyc. macrobulbon 'Rick Wells' x Lyc. Suave 'SVO')  This primary hybrid will be very floriferous with each bulb presenting 6 to 9 flowers. Green sepals with bright yellow petals and lips.
$35.00 in 4 1/2" pots. Blooming size.


Lycaste Mandy (Lyc. tricolor 'Rick' X  Lyc. Suave 'Perfect Pixie')  Again, we are expecting 6 to 8 flowers on a mature bulb. Sepals are green and petals and lips are light yellow.
$35.00 in 4 1/2" pots. Blooming size.
