Trichoglottis brachiata var. philippinensis flavum ‘Dee’s’ JC/AOS
New, Carter and Holmes Exclusive Mericlone Offering!
Offered here are the first mericlones from this rare, awarded plant. Trichoglottis are members of the Vanda alliance, with tall slender growth habit and tight pairings of rounded leaves. The normal color form has dark wine blooms with fuschia lip coloring but this rarely seen selection has golden yellow petals with a contrasting white lip. Flowers will emerge from between the leaves in late summer and into fall. This variety received a Judges Commendation from the American Orchid Society for its unusual coloring.
Growing Suggestion: Like other Vandas, this species should be grown in bright, warm conditions year round with plenty of water and humidity. We have started these in mesh baskets with some media for the roots to climb on, and plants will prefer to stay that way even when mature.
We have these growing in 3.5" mesh baskets. Plants are large enough to flower within 2-3 years or sooner. Please Limit this Size to 3 per customer.
