Epidendrum Orchid [Epidendrum spp.]

Product Description

Aloha! I’m the Epidendrum Orchid — easygoing and cheerful, with clusters of bright flowers and a reed-like look that brings charm to any space. I’m a ground-dwelling orchid (terrestrial), which makes me a bit different from my air-rooted cousins. I love being planted in soil, and I’m a fantastic pick for first-time orchid growers!

I grow up to 4 feet tall with narrow, grassy leaves and cheerful flower clusters that resemble mini Cattleyas. I’ll bloom in many colors depending on variety — often pink, orange, or red — and I’ll keep growing and blooming with proper light and a little fertilizer love.

I’m very forgiving and thrive in bright light. Keep my roots cool and give me some sun — I’ll be happy in pots or planted directly in warm climates.

What You’ll Get

One (1) Epidendrum orchid, potted in a 2-inch starter pot. These are unbloomed but strong young plants.
