Sorry, this product is sold out.
Pluck the blossoms of this affordable and truly striking Orchid for cut flowers without a tinge of guilt -- they are abundant (opening in clusters of 5–10 on each 8–10in stem) and last a month. Resembling expensive corsage Cattleyas, these natives of North America, China, and Japan open in June–July, run rampant and perennialize in any well-drained, humus-rich soil if given partial shade. Also suitable as houseplants.
