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. Most plants are in 2.7” pots as first or second bloomers unless otherwise noted as being fully mature in 4” pots PLEASE NOTE: Stock quantities of 6 or fewer are noted as Limited ~ Single plants are noted as (1) ORDERING INFORMATION FOR OUR MAIL ORDER CLIENTS: In the winter or during inclement weather, shipments may be delayed pending more moderate weather conditions. Shipping is either via FedEx Ground or Air depending on final destination. We reserve the right to withdraw any offering from sale and to limit quantities.

SIZE DEFINITIONS: F = Currently in flower (single spike unless otherwise noted) B = In bud (single spike unless otherwise noted) SP = In spike, just initiating to medium spike stage (no buds showing yet) BS = Blooming size (should flower in season) NBS = Near blooming size (approximately 1-2 years to flowering) S = about 2-3 years to flowering PHAL SPECIES: Most of these Phalaenopsis species are from Taiwan & were sibbed or selfed using very select parents 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 ! ONE-OF-A-KIND SEEDLINGS ! JIAHO NURSERIES, TAIWAN Phal. bellina BS $ 65 Limited (Sib Cross of FRAGRANT Species) This sib cross of everyone’s favorite Phal. species comes from a nursery in Taiwan known for its amazing species breeding ! They have chosen two select forms of Phal. bellina to create a much improved generation of this fragrant species. Color will be more intense and form will be much rounder ~ all on compact spikes with beautifully compact wavy leaves ! FRAGRANT ! ONE-OF-A-KIND SEEDLINGS ! JIAHO NURSERIES, TAIWAN Phal. bellina fma. alba BS $ 95 Limited (Sib Cross of FRAGRANT Species) These are the pure alba forms of Phal. bellina, bearing waxy white fragrant flowers with a hint of green around their segments ! A true Phal. collector’s plant and rarely available in this color form. FRAGRANT ! ONE-OF-A-KIND SEEDLINGS ! JIAHO NURSERIES, TAIWAN PHOTO NAME & DESCRIPTION SIZE PRICE 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. ONE-OF-A-KIND SEEDLINGS ! PHOTO NAME & DESCRIPTION SIZE PRICE 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. MINIATURE SPECIES ONE-OF-A-KIND SEEDLINGS ! JIAHO NURSERIES, TAIWAN 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. FRAGRANT ! ONE-OF-A-KIND SEEDLINGS ! PHOTO NAME & DESCRIPTION SIZE PRICE Phal. speciosa var. christiana BS $ 48 ’C#1’ JC/AOS (Species) Limited A great two-tone color form of this species which each flower expressing its red in a different pattern, each flower being a wonderful surprise ! Its expression of red varies according to light & temperature with cooler temperatures & brighter light producing an increased amount of red in the flowers. Previously flowered spikes often tend to remain green and will continue to form buds and flowers as the plant creates new flower spikes. Fully mature plants with several spikes in flower at the same time create quite a stunning display of color ! FRAGRANT ! Phal. sumatrana BS $ 42 (‘Jiaho Green Giant’ x self) Limited Seedlings from a highly select green form of this easy growing species ! Producing delightfully fragrant long-lasting flowers from late spring into the fall, it has been producing large, up to 7cm, flowers. The next generation of vastly improved forms of this species from a nursery renown for exceptional sibbings and selfings of Phalaenopsis species ! FRAGRANT ! ONE-OF-A-KIND SEEDLINGS ! JIAHO NURSERIES, TAIWAN Phal. violacea fma. Malaysia BS $ 48 (Species) Beautiful fragrance, beautiful leaves, Limited stunning flowers ! A summer to fall bloomer, this sibbing has produced flowers ranging in color from pink to rich magenta. A result of mating two select forms of the species, this form of Phal. violacea is not often available. Grow under lower light conditions than that for Phalaenopsis hybrids and keep evenly moist (not wet) for your best flowering. A “must have” for any Phal. species collection ! FRAGRANT ! ONE-OF-A-KIND SEEDLINGS ! JIAHO NURSERIES, TAIWAN 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.

  • Phalaenopsis
    Chapter 23 Phalaenopsis Chia-Chi Hsu, Hong-Hwa Chen, and Wen-Huei Chen Abstract Phalaenopsis is one of the most popular cultivated orchids worldwide. So far, 92 native species and 34,112 hybrids of Phalaenopsis have been registered in the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS), but only 18 native species are frequently used for breeding. In Phalaenopsis market, large flowers with various colors are most popular. Phal. amabilis and Phal. aphrodite are the major species used for breeding the white-and-large-flower hybrids. The colored hybrids include pink, red- to- purple, green, yellow-to-orange, and black colors, as well as distinct colors in tepals with red lip. For large-and-red flowers,Phal. schilleriana and Phal. sanderiana are the major parent species, whereas Phal. equestris and Phal. pulcherrima are important for the development of the small- and medium-sized red flowers. Members of the subgenusPolychilos are the most important ancestors for yellow-to-orange flowers. More recently, there is an increased interest in plants with white, pink, or yellow colors with red stripes and/or spots. These traits are introduced from Phal. lindenii, Phal. stuartiana, and Phal. amboinensis. Furthermore, harlequin flowers which have clown-like spots and very complicated color patterns are released in the market, as well as hybrids with peloric and Bigfoot flowers. Besides color, scent and (a)biotic stress resistance are becoming important targets in Phalaenopsis breeding. Keywords Bigfoot · Breeding · Harlequin · Orchids · Peloric · Phalaenopsis C.-C.

  • Orchitheek 1 Uitgave: Nederlandse Orchideeën Vereniging
    Nederlandse Orchideeën Vereniging – Orchitheek 1 Uitgave: Nederlandse Orchideeën Vereniging. Auteursrechten voorbehouden Phalaenopsis hieroglyphica Rchb.f. Sectie Zebrinae Syn. Phalaenopsis lueddemanniana ssp. Hieroglyphica Deze plant werd gevonden door P. Micholitz in het jaar 1890 op de zuidelijke eilanden van de Filippijnen in het Sulu-gebied, en werd overgebracht naar de Fa. Low en Co in Engeland. Ze werd door F. Reichenbach beschreven en gepubliceerd in de Gardeners’ Chronicle als Ph.lueddemanniana ssp. hieroglyphica. Deze naam is waarschijnlijk ontleend aan de kleur en tekening van de bloem. Verspreiding Het verspreidingsgebied is de groep zuidelijke eilanden in de Sulu-archipel (Filippijnen), waar de planten op bomen groeien die langs riviertjes staan in het laagland op een hoogte van 500 m. Beschrijving De planten groeien in een horizontale, lichtelijk omhoog gerichte stand tegen de bomen, of in humusnesten in de vorken van takken in de bomen. Zij hebben geen schijnknollen of bulben; de bladeren ontspruiten uit het hart van de wortelstok dicht opeen, zijn langwerpig, puntig aan het uiteinde, met een nerf in het midden. De kleur is effen grasgroen; bladeren stevig, niet vlezig en dik. De planten vormen niet meer dan 1 nieuw blad per groeiseizoen; het zijn uitgesproken trage groeiers. De wortels zijn zilverachtig en rond, vertakken zich en zijn 5 mm in dwarsdoorsnede. De bloemtakken ontwikkelen zich aan de onderkant van de wortelstok en tussen de onderste, oudste bladeren. Ze worden ongeveer 30 cm lang en jaar na jaar worden op dezelfde bloemtak bloemen geproduceerd. Naarmate de plant ouder wordt, neemt het aantal bloemen toe. Zoals exemplaren van andere ondersoorten van Ph.lueddemanniana wel doen, produceren zij geen jonge planten aan de bloemtakken.

  • Australian Orchid Registered Hybrid List
    Australian Orchid Registered Hybrid List At 1st January 2018 An alphabetical hybrid list within genus Produced by the Australasian Native Orchid Society Inc. Page 1 Australian Orchid Registered Hybrid List at 1 January 2018 Australian Orchid Registered Hybrid List Introduction An Australian native orchid species is defined as a species found growing within the boundaries of Australia. Where a species occurs both within and outside Australia, a plant of that species shall be regarded as an Australian species unless its provenance (or the provenance of one of its ancestors in the case of a line bred species), is known to be outside Australia. An Australian native orchid hybrid is defined as an orchid which is the progeny of Australian native orchid species or their hybrids. Generally, only names that are accepted on World Checklist of Selected Plant Families (WCSPF) are used in registering hybrids. Breeders should consult the list before registering hybrids with the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS), Kew. In the past, some parents not on the current accepted list have been used, and in the interests of nomenclatural stability, resulting grexes are NOT altered when names change. Over time, accepted names may change following new information and taxonomic reviews. Hybrid Listing The RHS hybrid list is a complex historical record reflecting species recognised at the time of registration, and it contains some errors and repetitions. The lists of registered hybrids below are as supplied by the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS), and are annotated to indicate where species used in original crosses are no longer accepted. The RHS list does not use taxa below the level of species.
