IMPORTANT ! Address all correspondence & orders to: [email protected] (Please mention “Plant Pre-Order” & note the particular event or Mail Order in the subject line)

This list replaces & supersedes all previous lists. All orders are filled in the order in which they are received and are subject to prior sale.

Prices are listed in US Dollars

OF SPECIAL NOTE: We will not be bringing everything on this list so a Pre-Order will reserve the plant – in addition, we often

bring some first bloom One-of-a-Kind seedlings grown from flasks purchased from select cutting-edge breeding programs in Taiwan. At various times during the year, this will also include plants of Phal. bellina, Phal. violacea and hybrids with their

breeding background. These will be available on a First Come-First Serve basis – all will be One-of-a-Kind plants, not mericlones.

We’ve also expanded our collection of miniature Chinese Cymbidiums, miniature Vandaceous and miniature

Dendrobiums – all of which grow & flower happily with our Phals. These are now listed these in their own sections.

Our “Previously Flowered” section is at the end of this list ~ these are fully mature mericlones, many of which are now available at reduced prices.

Most plants are in 2.7” pots as first or second bloomers unless otherwise noted as being fully mature in 4” pots

Stock quantities of 6 or fewer are noted under size in parens ( )

Phal. cornu-cervi fma. chattaladae

(the true chattaladae !)

(Rare color form of Species – Sib cross from Dr. David Grove made from the original species)

This is the genuine chattaladae form of

Phal. cornu-cervi from David Grove, owner of the only known plant of this

variety. NOTE: There are other red

forms of Phal. cornu-cervi being offered – but they are actually fma. rubescens or a

cross between fma. rubescens and possibly fma. chattaladae….all showing a hint of yellow in their lateral sepals and most with a yellow back to the flowers. Fma. chattaladae has a totally solid red back to its flowers with no hint of yellow

anywhere except the very tips of the lateral sepals & it retains its solid red

color, even on the fading flowers, whereas fma. rubescens will begin to

show yellow as the flowers fade.

Phal. cornu-cervi fma. flava

Not only are these the more rare color form of Phal. cornu-cervi, but they also

are exhibiting amazing vigor ! Large robust plants are now spiking for

summer-fall flowering. Its older spikes will continue to form buds & branch while still creating additional new spikes. And this clone readily makes basal & on-spike

keikis for the absolute best in a bright yellow FRAGRANT display !

Phal. hieroglyphica fma. alba

(Species: ‘Golden Promise’ AM/AOS x self)

The rare alba form of Phal. hieroglyphica which we find much more charming than the common white & burgundy form. For an alba form these have been extremely

vigorous growers & a few from this group have flowered already. Always leave the

previously flowered spike on the plant since they do tend to add additional buds

while making a new spike or two.

Phal. javanica

(Species)

Not often available, this strain is the result of a sibbing of two select forms.

Very compact pendulous spikes produce small flowers cascading over or between

compact round leaves. Again, we’ve found this species does better in our

greenhouses when grown a little cooler & shadier.

Phal. maculata

(VERY RARE Species)

Similar in its bold marks to Phal. mariae, but producing slightly flatter flowers with

crisp & dramatic deep red barring on a pure white waxy flower – all on a very

compact flower spike. An easy-growing Phal. species which is always difficult to

find. Will re-flower from old spikes in addition to producing new.

Phal. mariae

(Rarely Available Species)

This species has all but disappeared in cultivation. Unfortunately, many plants

found their way into this country mislabeled as Phal. mariae when they

were actually Phal. bastianii. Phal. mariae is easily recognized by its gently cascading flower spikes, a slightly more cupped flower and bold blotching on its

creamy-white background. We’ve already flowered a few from this population last

July & it is the TRUE Phal. mariae. Will

re-flower from old spikes in addition to producing new.

NOTE: Often we will leave previously

flowered, still green, spikes on these plants since they continue to add more buds to that spike in addition to forming

new spikes.

‘Tara’ 4N

Phal. (Dor.) pulcherrima alba fma. champornensis ‘Tara’ – 4N

(Tetraploid Peloric form of Species)

This keiki is from a tetraploid (4N) population producing fuller flowers with a much more vividly colored & well-defined peloric splash on its petals ! Unlike the

diploid forms of this species, our 4N population is very slow to produce keikis,

making only one every 1-2 years. This particular clone was selected for its fuller flower, heavier substance & bold splash

patterning on the petals.

Additional Note: the clone ‘Tara’ has slightly more green to its yellow splash

than its siblings which are a rich golden-yellow.

MULTIFLORAL MINIATURES & COMPACT-GROWING BRIGHTLY COLORED NOVELTIES:

Again, most of these clones are the result of the excellent Taiwanese breeding programs.

Many of the plants below were hand-picked from select nurseries over the last several years on our annual trips to Taiwan.

PLEASE NOTE: With many of the harlequins & the red or orange novelties, differences in light & temperature at various times

of the year will cause some variation to occur in the flower color and/or intensity of their markings. Under warmer temperatures & more shaded conditions in the summer, many red hybrids with yellow or orange in their breeding background

will flower showing more of those colors. Under cooler temperatures & brighter light in the fall to winter months, the red pigment in the flowers is more strongly expressed resulting in solid red flowers.



Phal. Chian Xen Panda ’CX 492’ FCC/AOS

(Acker’s Sweetie x Chian Xen Angel)

Just awarded by our AOS Phalaenopsis Judging team at this year’s 2015 Taiwan

International Orchid Show, Chian Xen Panda stood head & shoulders above all

the harlequins we saw ! Producing 16 stunning and extremely full flat flowers, perfectly spaced on two inflorescences,

its over 4” flowers were dramatically marked with extremely crisp blackened-

burgundy accents focused centrally over pristine chalk white flowers, all making

for a show-stopping presentation ~ more than deserving of the highest flower

award that can be granted by the AOS. Great compact leaf span for the breeding

& a truly superior harlequin !

Phal. Ebony Sweet Gem (prov.) ’Little Treasure’

(Orig: Phal. (Yu Pin Natsume x

Fuller’s Berry) ‘OX 1659’ Another clone using the great miniature

harlequin parent, Fuller’s Berry ! Combined with Yu Pin Natsume, it has

created cardboard-substance flowers that are almost black & are FRAGRANT…our

photo, shot at the show with a flash, doesn’t begin to capture how really

“almost black” these flowers are (due to the flash reflecting back to the camera).

They are really as “black” as the Fredclarkeara’s or the Millenium Magics

thanks to the rich harlequin pollen parent, Fuller’s Berry ! Mated with Yu Pin

Natsume, another heavily marked harlequin mini, its rich dark color is the result of layer upon layer of harlequin suffusion coming from both parents,

producing a thick flower with heavy color pigment and no hint of any other color.

These plants have already flowered once, producing 2 branching spikes in just a 2.7” pot and will continue to produce

flowers on previously bloomed spikes in addition to creating new…a couple which

were cut back just 2 months ago are already spiking again. A cutting-edge

Phal. Fuller’s Gold Stripes ’OX1560’

An especially charming clone of this

multi-floral miniature ! Unlike the other commonly available clones of the same hybrid, this particular clone produces

extremely round well-balanced flowers on very compact branching spikes – its

striping and red lip are also much more vivid and well-defined than its siblings – its presentation beautifully set off by a

central white flush. These heavy substance flowers lead us to wonder if they’re 4N – and this heavier substance

means a long-lasting display. If we could only grow one clone of Fuller’s Gold

Stripes, this would be it !

over another, all against a soft yellow background, its harlequin blotch almost

totally covering each flower. This particular clone is super compact versus

other clones of this hybrid, the spikes reaching no taller than 6-8” from the rim of the pot. Very heavy waxy substance, extremely compact spikes and leaves,

Not your everyday white multi-floral miniature, this particular clone of Little Gem Stripes carries a bold red lip that makes the whole presentation really

stand out ! Compact branching spikes produce a generous display of mini

whites with the punch of a bright red lip. Although the flowers open showing some

of the striping from Taisuco Stripe, as they maure the striping totally

disappears, leaving a pure white multi-floral mini with a great red lip. This clone

is the absolute favorite in Taiwan for further breeding of multi-minis for its full-form flowers, compact spikes & leaves &

its blood-red lip!

FRAGRANT MINIATURE CHINESE CYMBIDIUMS:

All the species listed below grow & flower easily WITH our Phals under the same light & temperature conditions since they are miniature growing Chinese species, requiring much lower light, less space & will grow under warmer temperatures than their larger cousins ~ they also don’t require the extreme chill in order to make their flower spikes. Two of our clones in particular are just 6” in height – perfect for windowsill & under-lights growing ! As you will notice, we are particularly fond of the green & yellow flowering varieties with either delightfully compact or elegantly tall flower spikes. We’ve found that the traditional burgundy-brown color is just too muddy to stand out and make a statement. Several of these varieties also have the added charm of VARIEGATED FOLIAGE, meaning they’re attractive, even when not in flower ! Variegated foliage comes at a higher price because it’s greatly prized in Japanese & Chinese cultures, meaning the stronger the variegation, the more expensive the clone. Most of these clones/divisions came in recently, bare-rooted, and are now well-established in their moss pots – they are just now forming their new growths in preparation for flowering once again.

Habenaria rhodocheila

We have been amazed at how easy to grow that this Habenaria species has been ! Even when not in flower, their foliage is beautifully marked. We’ve

found that if we keep them just slightly moist with a light spritzing, not wet, when

they go deciduous, they produce their spring growths readily. Allowing them to

dry totally will most likely cause their loss over the winter – we know, we used

to follow the culture sheets & did just that – and they never came back ! We’ve also discovered that trying to grow them in a bark mix is more than challenging, so

we’ve switched to growing them in moss. This population has been extremely

vigorous & is well worth adding to every collection. Plus, despite our initial

doubts, they LOVE growing in the New Zealand moss ! We’ve been amazed at

Polystachya paniculata

(Species)

Endemic to African rainforests, this compact grower literally explodes with hundreds of small ¼” brilliant orange-

yellow flowers on 8” vigorously branching spikes ! We had it flower in

the spring, summer and often again in the fall. Easily grown and flowered under

Phalaenopsis light conditions, it is temperature tolerant and will grow equally as well under intermediate

temperatures. Prefers a fine fir bark mix or New Zealand moss for its fine root

system and being only slightly drier in the winter months. For an outrageous

and brilliant display, this is easily one of the easiest & most rewarding orchids to

grow and flower !

are almost totally covered with chocolate brown blotches, and its broad lip is

heavily overlaid with vivid purple right out to the narrow white picotee, a vast improvement over other Zygopetalum

multi-floral miniature parents has produced an extremely floriferous petite

bush of adorable white ! As first bloomers, they already produced 2-3

branching spikes ~ we can only imagine what they will do when they’ve really

grown up. The breeder, Mr. Frank Woo, has been doing some cutting-edge multi-floral mini hybrids & every time we visit his nursery in Taiwan we find multitudes of plants we simply cannot live without !

Phal. Zuma’s Pixie ’Taida Little Cutie’

(Carmela’s Pixie x equestris)

Always one of our most favorite of miniatures for its compact display,

compact leaf span & brilliant rich pink flowers. These are first bloomers in 2”

pots but will eventually grow up to produce richly branching spikes,

flowering about twice a year. Another perfect addition for the “space-

challenged” !
