MULTIFLORALS
 

CLASSICS:

St. Swithin (rothschildianum x philippinense)

Broad, lush leaves, some starting a second growth. Near blooming size.

$49.99

Lady Isabel (rothschildianum x stonei)

stonei hybrids are definitely one of my favorite groups, and this is a classic. Colorful pouches with nice clear dorsal.

SOLD OUT

 

Berenice (lowii x philippinense)

An easy growing, free blooming multifloral, here remade with superior parents.

SOLD OUT

SANDERIANUM 'PRIMARIES' (i.e. one direct parent is sanderianum):

William Ambler x sanderianum

Excellent colour, compact growth habit, and of course those sanderianum influenced petals. An immediate sellout for us in the past once we bloomed the first ones. 50 cm leafspan, near blooming size.

$59.99

Michael Koopowitz (phillippinense x sanderianum)

The second most awarded sanderianum hybrid, this has proven to be the best parent of subsequent crosses. Free blooming, compact growing, probably the best overall presentation of any sand hybrid. From the breeding program at Shin-Yi nursery, the global hotbed of sanderianum breeding, it is near impossible to get this caliber of genetics out of their breeding program. 30 cm + leafspan, ~2 years from bloom.

$79.99

Prince Edward of York (rothschildianum x sanderianum)

This now is the most awarded sanderianum hybrid with just cause….beautiful upright spikes, long petals, great colour. Broad lush leaves, 40 cm leafspan, ~2 years from bloom.

$69.99

Booth’s Sand Lady (Lady Isabel x sanderianum)

Excellent clear dorsal, great colour, and fabulous petals. Photo is from one of our customers who wasn’t sure when I said these would bloom in just a few months. Whopping 70 cm leafspan + new growth ~1/3 mature. Very much blooming size….in fact I think I just heard one coming in to spike…..the largest plants of the whole lot.

$99.99

NEXT GENERATION
As mentioned above, Michael Koopowitz has proven to be the best next generation parent in sanderianum influenced multifloral breeding. We are pleased to offer two of our own crosses in this direction. Never before flowered, maybe you can be the first!

Obehausen’s Diament x Michael Koopowitz (MK pictured)

 25% primulinum, 25% philippinense, 50% sanderianum, 100% exciting! Hoping for colourful flowers on easy growing, free blooming plants. 16 cm leafpsan.

$29.99

Sungai Melinau x Michael Koopowitz

Looking for dark colour on compact plants, same ratio as first cross with wilhelminiae substituted for primulinum. 16 cm leafspan.

$29.99

Spiderman (Michael Koopowitz x adductum var. anitum)

WOW! Compact, long petalled flowers with very dark colour. Many have taken on the blue-green leaf colour of pollen parent. 45 cm+ leafspan, blooming size.

$59.99

Kemp Tower (Prince Edward of York x philippinense)

One of the most promising of the lot, the early bloomers some have seen from Taiwan are spectacular. Similar to Michael Koopowitz with nice vertical roth-influenced dorsal. Lots of promise here. Lush, beautiful plants. 50cm leafspan, near blooming size.

$59.99

PHRAGS
 

X tetzlaffianum

Large flower with long, curly cued petals emerging from pearcei-like plants, however both bigger and better!
Divisions $200

Jason Fischer

Probably the best red phrag out there right now, there seems to be little chance of the new kovachii hybrids stealing this crown just yet as they have been coming our more pink than red.

SOLD OUT
 


 

Mexipedium xerophyticum

The dwarf slipper from Mexico, this is a slow growing, consecutive blooming miniature. Prefers bright light and high pH, limey conditions in the medium. Perfect for under lights or windowsill, these can form impressive specimens. Blooming size, starting to send out 1 or 2 new sideshoots.
