PHOTO NAME & DESCRIPTION SIZE PRICE
Phal. amabilis (4N) B/F $ 48 Limited (TETRAPLOID FORM of Species) 2 spikes ! A dynamite sibbing of this favorite of all Phal. species ! This population is a 4” pot tetraploid form, producing more compact leaves and beautifully round flowers with great substance, producing a long-lasting display with a much smaller footprint than is typical for the species. Gracefully cascading spikes make for a stunning display !
PHOTO NAME & DESCRIPTION SIZE PRICE
Phal. appendiculata BS $ 68 Limited (MICRO-MINIATURE Species)
Rarely available ~ and often thought difficult to grow ~ this sibbing from a nursery in Taiwan renown for its species is a much stronger grower than those available which have been jungle collected ! A micro-miniature, these plants are happily growing in small moss pots and are showing the vigor achieved by sibbing and selfing of select clones of this species. Although many growers choose to mount them, we have found they’re just as happy in a pot ~ we allow them to dry somewhat between waterings since they don’t like constantly wet feet. Grow under lower Phalaenopsis light conditions ~ shadier and a little cooler is the secret to success with these !

Phal. cornu-cervi BS $ 95 fma. chattaladae Limited
(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.
BS $ 48 Phal. hieroglyphica Limited
fma. alba
(RARE Color Form of 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.

BS $ 48 Phal. javanica Limited
(Species: ‘Montclair’ x self)
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 at a lower bench level.

BS $ 48 Phal. lindenii Mounted (Species)
Limited The result of sibbing two select clones of
this rarely available species, its
beautifully mottled leaves provide a backdrop for gracefully cascading spikes of small white or peppermint-striped flowers, beautifully accented with pink striping & a bright pink flush in the lip. Grow cooler & shadier.
ONE-OF-A-KIND SEEDLINGS !
Phal. mariae BS $ 45
(Rarely Available Species) Limited 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.

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.
PHOTO NAME & DESCRIPTION SIZE PRICE
Phal. B/F $ 33 (Acker’s Sweetie x amabilis) (1)
’Sweetheart’
We saw this multi-floral mini at last year’s Taiwan Show and simply had to add them to our stock ! The pod parent, Acker’s
Sweetie, is a delightfully spotted beautifully round flower, but we found the spike and plant habit just too large. However, by crossing it to Phal. amabilis, the plant and flower size has been reduced to a more compact display and footprint – very much like having a miniature form of the great Phal. Acker’s Sweetie. The best of both worlds !
MULTI-FLORAL MINI
Phal. (Brother Sara Gold x SP/B $ 42 Haur Jin Diamond) ‘OX1608’ (1)
An exciting new direction in breeding, this hybrid carries the bright yellow background from both parents ! Its central splash pattern is the result of the NEW ! dusted red overlay from Brother Sara Gold combined with the harlequin influence of Haur Jin Diamond to create a sunburst-type accent. Heavy substance from both parents adds to a great long- lasting display. And even when all the flowers have opened, it tends to continue
to add buds to the spike !

Phal. Chiada Gloria ‘Wild Cat’ B/F $ 22 (Little Gem Stripes x Sunrise Red Peoker) Limited
A brand new harlequin-influenced multi- floral miniature, flowering for the first NEW ! time in just 1.7” pots ! Little Gem Stripes brings the multi-floral habit ~ Sunrise Red Peoker took the striping from the pod
parent & emboldened it, much like Taida King’s Caroline ‘Taida Little Zebra’. However, this little hybrid presents its bold harlequin markings over a golden yellow background. Great substance
flowers & a compact leaf & spike habit !
Phal. Chian Xen Piano F $ 48 ’CX340’ (1)
(Jiuhbao Victoria x Chian Xen Mammon) 2 spikes !
Chian Xen Piano is one of the newest 4” pots directions in breeding using a harlequin
parent that stabilizes the harlequin patterning ! This particular clone is NEW ! especially charming for its subtle
harlequin influence over a white
background, softly kissed with a whisper of pink. The larger photo, taken at the Taiwan Show last year, shows what this plant is capable of doing, showing off with flowers about 3.5-4” in size. A floriferous and softly accented new direction in harlequin breeding !

AOS Judging team at the 2013 Taiwan International Orchid Show, this multi-floral miniature wowed the judging team with its fully round bright rose pink flowers, each marked with dark raspberry-red harlequin spots !

These plants are vigorous growers, having produced branching spikes in just 2.7” pots – and were still in full flower four months later !

Phal. Ebony Sweet Gem (prov.) SP $ 95 ’Little Treasure’ Limited
(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 “almost black” multi-floral mini !
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.

intensities on both clones will vary

inflorescences !

Long- lasting heavy substance flowers on very compact spikes which tend to continue to produce buds, even after all the flowers are open. Definitely an arresting presentation !

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 and its flower size takes after the multi-mini parent.

FRAGRANT MINIATURE CHINESE CYMBIDIUMS:
All the species listed below grow & flower easily WITH our Phals under the same light & WARMER 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 of standard Cymbidiums in order to make their flower spikes and all tend to flower more than once a year, having no definite flowering season. 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 pale pink-burgundy colored flowers are 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.

Zygo. Advance Australia SP/B $ 45 ’HOF’ AM/AOS
(Titanic x Helen-Ku) 2-3
We received an AM/AOS on this clone a spikes ! couple of years ago & still feel it’s the best FRAGRANT Zygo around – a very
easy and extremely compact grower, quite unlike most Zygopetalums available today which tend to really spread out & take over your growing space ! The waxy green sepals & petals 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 hybrids. These are first bloomers & will produce 3-4 flowers on their first spikes. As the plant matures, expect to see up to two spikes per each new growth and flowering more than once a year ~ multiple newly emerging growths only add to its delightfully fragrant bouquet ! A vigorous grower for this kind of breeding, it thrives when grown in New Zealand moss. Its heavy chocolate barring only varies with the light and temperature conditions (cooler & brighter versus warmer & shadier) when the spikes are forming. The absolute best of all Zygos. for its solid purple lip, rich rich color, full flat segments & great compact growth habit !

Phalaenopsis I-Hsin Picture ‘A08840’ BS $ 22 (1) (Leopard Prince x I-Hsin Golden Sun Bird) NEW ! Producing dark & richly colored red flowers, this particular hybrid has combined the best qualities of both parents ! Leopard Prince gives it the wonderful spotting pattern around the column & lateral sepals while I-Hsin Golden Sun Bird brings in the influence of harlequin heritage & yellow breeding.

Phalaenopsis Lioulin Barbie BS $ 28 ’A07401’ (1)

This is one of the very best for a dark pink multi-floral miniature ! Velvety rich dark pink flowers are produced on compact branching spikes over equally
compact leaf spans. And for a pink mini, its flowers last much longer than most for this type of breeding – we exhibited one plant in four different shows over two months and all the flowers & buds held despite the extreme stress shows can do to a plant !
MULTI-FLORAL MINI !
Phal. Liu’s Berry BS $ 25 ‘Orchid House S.W.’ (5)
(Eduardo Quisumbing x parishii)

Phal. Liu’s Fantasy ‘Tom Ann’ BS $ 22 (3) (Be Glad x Timothy Christopher)
Our best clone of this miniature, showing a great mix of both famous parents ! NEW ! What sets this clone, ‘Tom Ann’, apart is its pure white lip with just a touch of yellow in the callus, quite different from
the traditionally available clones of this little hybrid which bear yellow lips – compact grower with nice round thick leaves ~ we strongly suspect this particular clone is a tetraploid (4N). Easy to fit into any collection, this is an adorably petite & pristine white charmer !

(Eduardo Quisumbing x lobbii)
Another select clone of this amazing little hybrid ! A vigorous grower, it already NEW ! produced two branching spikes as a first
bloomer in just a 2.7” pot. This clone
differs from ‘KF’ in that its lip is more yellow in color without the light orange overlay. We just removed the spikes from these plants – as first bloomers, they were already producing 2 branching spikes. Very compact leaf span & spike height – ideal for windowsill & under- lights growing as well as space- challenged collections !

Phal. Nobby’s Amy ‘FS5-11’ BS $ 25 (Be Glad alba x Rothschildiana) (5)
Created by a mating of the alba forms of both parents, the result has been beautifully round flowers, pristine white with a bright yellow lip ! Due to its multi- floral background, this clone readily branches on tall spikes and has been an amazingly easy grower. Amazingly long lasting flowers for a white multi-floral
mini. As first bloomers, they have already flowered with two spikes & even
with all its flowers open, it’s still producing more buds on each spike. One of the best miniature whites we’ve ever seen !
