This listing is for Coelogyne speciosa. Well-established blooming size plant in a 3.25″ pot Known as the Beautiful Coelogyne, this species blooms sequentially with 1 to 3 flowers per spike. The musky scented flowers arise out of the center of a new pseudobulb growth and can bloom at any time of the year but most often in spring and summer. The flowers are about 6 cm in diameter. The lip is white with orange-brown or dark brown spots. The large side lobes of the lip are brown or red and curve up to form a tube that almost completely covers the spine. Care: Cool to hot temps, indirect-bright indirect light, regular year-round watering and light feeding. The warmer the growing conditions, the more often it should be watered.
Unusual Orchid Species Eria globifera. Wooly Flower Buds! Looks Like A Moth!
This listing is for Eria globifera. Large, well-established blooming size plant in a 3.25″ pot. These plants are currently developing 3-5 new growths! A cute, easy to grow Eria (closely related to Dendrobiums) species. The buds develop a wooly exterior (they look like hanging caterpillar cocoons) before opening to reveal a beautiful 1/2″, creamy-white flower with distinctive red venation. Nonresupinate (upside down) flowers. Flowers will be identical to pictures (these are divisions from my stud plant). Flowers winter-spring. The medium-small plant has pseudobulbs that are almost Hershey Kiss shaped (globose) and are initially covered by a mahogany-colored sheath. Each bulb has 1 or 2 dark green shiny leaves. Great for pots, hanging baskets or mounting.
