Get ready to bring some pops of green into your life. This orchid is striking and knows it. Expect big blooms measuring at least 10cm across.
The photo that shows on each available variant is indicative of the size plant that you will receive. Size B plants can be expected to reach flowering size in 2-2.5 years; Size B+ plants in 18-24months (depending on the flowering season and time of purchase). Please check carefully when selecting options to avoid “size surprise”.
Paphiopedilum, found in the tropical forests of Southeast Asia reaching as far north as southern China, are commonly known as Slipper Orchids. Paphiopedilums are quite easy to cultivate and therefore popular among orchid enthusiasts. Depending on where you are growing them in NZ you can grow them outdoors in sheltered, shady corners of your garden, or indoors in the cooler parts of the house.
