Summer Blooming Varieties
In spike and bloom at various times throughout
the summer. Order early for the best selection; available
throughout the season or until they run out! |
|
| Brazilian
Laelias: The most beautiful and showy of summer-blooming Cattleya-type
species and hybrids. Temperature tolerant; these grow
outdoors along with cymbidiums throughout the year.
Varieties include: Laelia purpurata, the Queen of Brazilian
Summer - lavender, alba, & semi-alba - $35 &
up, L. Pacavia - $35 & up, L. tenebrosa - $35 &
up, Lc. Elegans - $35 & up, L. Cinnabrosa - $25
& up, and more! Please inquire about larger plants
and select varieties. |
|
 |
Stanhopeas: Amazing, dragon-like flowers that bloom downward
through the bottom of a basket! Natives of Central
and South America, most of the species we grow
are temperature
tolerant and can be grown outdoors along with
Cymbidiums. While the flowers may only last a
few days, their dramatic beauty makes them a favorite
among orchid enthusiasts, and large
specimens produce masses of inflorescences blooming
in succession for a much longer period of time.
Stanhopea oculata, S. tigrina, S. wardii and others
starting at $25. Some select varieties $35 &
up. Specimen-size baskets $50 & up. See our
extended Stanhopea
list with pictures! |
|
|
| Sobralias: Large flowers occuring in lavender, white, yellow
and art shades, complemented by graceful, bamboo-like
foliage distinguish this Central South American
genus. While the flowers are not long-lasting,
they are produced over a long period of time,
during summer when flowers are at a premium in
the collection and their extravagant beauty never
fails to attract attention. Sobralia macrantha
- $25 & up, S. mirabilis (pictured) $35 &
up, S. veitchiana - $50 & up, S. xantholeuca
- $50 & up and S. Yellow Kiss - $35 &
up. Note, some Sobralias are very tall, so watch
out for shipping costs. |

Love - $35 (pictured) and more. Listed are base
prices for plants with one spike; add $10 per
additional spike for multispike plants. |
|
|
| Encylias: These stately species and hybrids are unique among
their related Cattleya-types for their wispy sprays
and profusion of flowers. When not in bloom, the
bulbs are particularly attractive. Most are temperature
tolerant and all are suited for pot, basket or
mounted culture. Encyclia aenicta - $35, E. ambigua
