(syn. amabilis v. formosanum)
NEW !
(VARIEGATED form of Species)
Exceptionally high quality full round
pristine white flowers are produced on
this beautifully variegated-leaf clone of
this classic species – making the plant
equally attractive whether in flower or
not ! These plants have just finished
their first flowering & the variegation
on the leaves varies, so it’s best to
select which one you prefer in person !

Phal. deliciosa

These MICRO MINIS have been
flowering very consistently and very
early on extremely small plants.
Beautiful round leaves & compact
spikes – summer-fall bloomer.

Phal. deliciosa ‘Rheagan’
BS
(SELECT CLONE of Species)
NEW !
‘Rheagan’ has been our most
floriferous & beautifully marked clone
from this species population – and
happily, it gives us a keiki or two each
year. We’ve found that under our
growing conditions this species, like
many Phal. species of its type, prefers
to be grown a little shadier than the
higher-light waxy-flowered summerblooming species.

a very compact flower spike. An easygrowing Phal. species which is always
difficult to find. Will re-flower from old

(Rarely Available Species)
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
perpendicular flower spikes and bold
blotching on its slightly cupped
creamy-white flowers. We’ve already
flowered a few from this population
last July & it is the TRUE Phal. mariae.

Phal. schilleriana
‘Pink Butterfly’ AM/CCM/AOS
Limited
(Species)
A beautiful spring-flowering species
with beautifully mottled leaves – this
particular clone is an amazingly strong
grower for the species. Adding to its
attractiveness are the beautifully
mottled leaves of this particular clone !
A vigorous grower, unlike many others
of this species, with firm leaves &
heavier substance flowers. Although
we have not had it tested, we suspect
that this re-cloning of ‘Pink Butterfly’
produced a tetraploid population with
its increased vigor and larger flowers.
MULTIFLORAL MINIATURES & COMPACT-GROWING BRIGHTLY COLORED NOVELTIES:
Again, most of these clones were created as a result of the excellent Taiwanese breeding programs.
Selections below were hand-picked from selected nurseries in Taiwan over the last seven years.
Of Special Note: We will also be bringing, to each show, a selection of first-bloom one-of-a-kind seedlings grown
from flasks of brand new directions in hybrid breeding which we’ve obtained and grown to flowering size – they
include hybrids from Brother Orchids, Tying Shin Orchids and several other cutting-edge Taiwanese hybridizers.

One of the most amazing pure white
multi-floral minis we’ve ever had, right
down to its pristine pure white lip ! Our
mother plant, in just a 3.5” pot, has
produced a 5-branched flower spike –
and the flowers have been open for 4
months already, still holding its oldest
flowers while it continues to form buds !
Very compact leaf span & spike height –

An adorable PELORIC form of this
always popular hybrid ! We first saw this
plant a few years ago in Taiwan & have
been waiting for someone to clone it.
Now that they are all in flower, we are
sure that they cloned just like the parent
since all the buds were triangular in form.
A slow grower & slow to open its flowers
– but well worth the wait ! (Note: These
have already flowered for the first time
with two branching spikes on each small
plant…perfect time to repot them for an
even better flowering next spring!)

have a much richer color, are much fuller

One of our newest – and most favorite MICRO MINIS producing the charm of
branching compact spikes of small white

Timothy Christopher parent. The pod
parent, Dor. pulcherrima, has given this
charming miniature a soft fuchsia-pink
outlined lip, favoring the shape of a
typical Doritis lip. All of these, as first
bloom seedlings, produced two
abundantly flowering – often branching spikes, in just a 2.5” pot ! Amazingly
floriferous & totally captivating. Vigorous
growers which will eventually form
multiple basal keikis. These have been
flowering twice a year for us, spring and

violacea & amboinensis var. flava in its

infusion of Phal. micholitzii, well-known
for producing green-flowered progeny,
giving it just a hint of green. It carries a
multi-spike habit from its parentage, and
its compact leaf span and spikes make it
ideal for under-lights, windowstill &

(Dor. pulcherrima x Phal. violacea var. coerulea)
A vast improvement over the coerulea
form of Dor. pulcherrima as a result of
the influence of the coerulea form of
Phal. violacea. The pollen parent has
given these flowers a long-lasting waxy
substance and brought the spike height
down in perfect proportion to the leaves.
This particular clone has taken on the
great color of Phal. violacea var. coerulea
with the floriferousness and deep purple
lip of Dor. pulcherrima.

Phal. Yaphon Lobspis ‘Circle’
(tetraspis x lobbii)
A few years ago we spied this MICRO
MINI hybrid on a grower’s bench in
Taiwan & hoped it would be cloned for
the hobby-growers ! It’s a mating of the
best of both parents, with Phal. lobbii
giving it that wonderful lip and fuller
flower form and Phal. tetraspis giving the
influence of a taller spike and heavier
substance flowers with a touch of light
pin-dotting over all. Added to the much
improved flowers, it’s also very easy to
grow, unlike its parentage – and it tends
to continue to form buds on previously
flowered spikes in addition to forming

One of a kind hybrid seedlings –
NOT a mericlone !
Having just returned from my annual trip
to Taiwan, I was pleased to find many of
these “broad lip” hybrids at the show,
some of which were entered for AOS
judging & several of which we awarded,
including a couple of multi-floral
miniatures with its Phal. World Class
parent giving them the same ‘broad lip’.
These hybrids and some first-bloom
seedlings of multifloral miniatures from
Tying Shin Orchids, and the newest - a
knockout harlequin of Dtps. Yu Pin
Dream Girl x Phal. World Class - will be
available in limited quantities, as they
flower, at various events.
So far only about 15% of these broad lip
hybrids have been flowering with the
peloric “broad lip” – therefore, our plants
have been hand-selected (once they have
flowered) for this lip – each one is
different as to its lip formation and flower
color, a very few of which are flowering
almost pure white – no two are alike !
Not available for Pre-Order due to
variation – come early for the best
selection !
NOTE: The nursery we obtained
these hybrids from is no longer
releasing them due to their amazing
popularity. Mericlones of several
will be available in 4-5 years. In the
meantime, we will be releasing the
rest of our stock on these.

A perfect little miniature for under-lights

Although these plants are in small 3”
pots, they’re already producing 3-4
branching very compact spikes. When
fully mature, we expect them to form
basal keikis, adding even more to their
showy display. And, YES, they are
yellow-green flowers, just like they
appear in the close-up picture, due to
green on the back of each flower which
shows through to the front. The ideal
little hybrid for those of us who are
“space-challenged” !
